  • It was good to meet with @paolodecastro this afternoon and discuss how the U.S. can continue to strengthen its relationship with the European Union. The E.U. and U.S. have a strong partnership and I look forward to our continued collaboration.
  • Joined @USGLC’s Global Impact Forum today to discuss the importance of global food systems and international cooperation. Now, more than ever, coordination between the U.S. and our partners is critical to ensuring we all have the tools needed to feed the world.
