Marco Rubio:

We need anchor partners rooted in a common history, and that is what Greece has meant for the United States.

Marco Rubio on Greece:

Our relationship is founded not just in common history, but in enduring ties to family, culture, religion — we have a shared heritage.

We are indebted to ancient Greece for shaping not just our country but, frankly, our civilization.

Vance Says Iran Must Make 'Meaningful' Nuclear Concessions to End War

Finneas (Billie Eilish's brother) on Instagram:

I'm not concerned about Iran bombing California.

I'm concerned about Trump bombing California and trying to act like Iran did it.

Resigned Iranian Oil Minister Mohsen Paknejad:

My resignation has nothing to do with Trump’s claims.

Iran’s oil production and exports continued even under sanctions and blockade.

They have suffered a severe blow, so it is only natural that they resort to making such false claims.

Zelensky:

Over the past day, our warriors struck four targets that help Russia finance and wage its brutal war.

Two oil facilities and a training ground were struck in the Perm, Samara and Astrakhan regions. There was also a response in the Black Sea.

Libya's eastern parliament ousted its speaker of 10 years, Aguila Saleh, replacing him with Al-Salhin al-Obeidi in a move analysts link to Saddam Haftar's push to centralize power in the east.

Lawmakers first changed the rules to limit the speaker to a single 12-month term, then elected al-Obeidi unanimously the next day.

Saleh called it illegal.

The shake-up comes as Libya's rival governments are supposed to be working toward elections under a UN-mediated deal.

Marco Rubio on Greece:

We’re proud to announce a new memorandum of understanding to strengthen counter-terrorism information sharing between our law enforcement agencies.

We do not wish to see the birthplace of the West threatened by bad decisions, inaction and failure to address challenges.

Marco Rubio:

The Iranian economy is about to reach a place that few countries in the world have been in terms of how bad it's going to get.

And it's all the fault of the radical Shia clerics that make the decisions in that country.

They are the ones that have put the poor people of Iran in the situation that they're in.

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson:

The Democrats are guaranteed to try to impeach Trump, probably on the first day, first or second day.

Remember, they've already filed articles of impeachment in this Congress. I mean, they're raring to go.

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson:

I think every Democrat in Congress would vote against the cure to cancer because they just don't want Trump to get any credit or a win for anything.

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson:

The Iranians are not trustworthy negotiating partners. They lie. Some of them, as part of their religion, can justify it in their religion to the infidels.

Q: Where do you stand on the government’s role in artificial intelligence?

Marco Rubio: It’s called super intelligence.

Q: Amid increasing congressional scrutiny of Ambassador Guilfoyle’s tenure here, I’m wondering, Mr. Secretary, if you’ve personally reviewed some of those allegations and are confident that all is in compliance with State Department ethics.

Marco Rubio: This is not the forum where we’re going to address that. As simple as that. Suffice it to say, our embassy here is doing a great job.

Our ambassador has been a strong ambassador here. The questions you’re asking me, we’re not addressing those at press conferences in Greece with a foreign minister, in another country.

Marco Rubio on Iran:

The Straits of Hormuz are open. There’s almost as much oil flowing out now as there was before this conflict began.

They’ve lost complete control of the straits.

Marco Rubio on Iran:

Every dollar and every penny that that regime gets, they don’t spend it on roads or bridges or helping improve the lives of the Iranian people.

They spend that money on Hezbollah and Hamas and militias that fire rockets out of Iraq and the Houthis.

They should have spent their money on their people, and instead they spend their money on terrorism and on weapons.

Reporter: Secretary, will the State Department continue telling foreign governments not to facilitate María Corina’s return to Venezuela?

Rubio: You said that’s widely reported at this point. By who? Who widely reported that?

Reporter: The Wall Street Journal has.

Rubio: So it’s in the newspaper, it’s true? I can show you a lot of articles that are in the newspaper that are not true.

I always love these stories. You guys get somebody to tell you something, then you report it. So now it’s an established fact, and then you ask me about it as if somehow I’m responding to something that is fact.

I don’t know what you’re talking about, honestly. I don’t know. Just because you guys report something doesn’t mean it’s true. You know this, right? I’m sure you know this.

So the premise to your question is not true. We’ve never asked anyone not to let anybody else in anywhere in the world. I’ve said this repeatedly. So I don’t know how to answer a question based on something that is false.
