Yesterday’s repatriation of Syrian antiquities was made possible by years of work by American law-enforcement, prosecutors, and diplomats. Proud to join @USAmbUN, @USUNDeputy, and our Syrian colleagues at #UNGA81 before sending these incredible artifacts back home. A spectacular piece of history secured by American leadership. 🇺🇸🇸🇾

I regret to report the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team will not be drafting me anytime soon. ⚽️ Fortunately, we brought in the professionals. Soccer legends Shannon Boxx, Tony Sanneh, and Maren Hendershot McCrary joined young players in Sabah for a morning that made the case for sports diplomacy better than any speech could. Thanks to our Sabah partners and @ConocoPhillips for making it possible. 🇺🇸🇲🇾

Diplomacy wins often begin over dinner. Great first meeting with @IceCulinary to talk culinary diplomacy. As the #1 ranked culinary school in America, the institute brings 20,000+ alumni and top-tier educators to the table — a natural fit for ECA’s cultural exchange programs that include culinary professionals. Culinary diplomacy can drive economic opportunity — from food exports to expanding U.S. food tourism, American cuisine belongs on every menu. 🇺🇸🍽️ Photographer: Anthony Leo

The success of this year’s World Cup was made possible thanks to the intersection of the government, the private sector, and the American people. We're using Super Intelligence to find ways to increase efficiencies and serve the people. Government connects, but private sector delivers.

Strategic vision in action. 🇺🇸 Kennan’s legacy reminds us that clear strategy, principled strength, and steadfast sovereignty should always be our North Star.
American diplomat George Kennan’s analysis of the Soviet Union gave rise to “containment,” which became the north star of American diplomacy for over 40 years. Kennan's contributions paved the way for the triumph of the free world.

🇺🇸 25 years. 50,000+ American students. Countless skills brought home. The @GilmanProgram sends U.S. college students abroad to study and intern- and they come back with the workforce skills that strengthen America’s competitive edge.

We’re still celebrating America's 250th anniversary! Thank you to ConocoPhillips and McDermott for partnering with our embassy in Malaysia to launch the Freedom 250 Exhibition at Tanjung Aru Library in Sabah. Both companies are also members of the @USEmbassyKL Corporate Circle, opening new doors for U.S. businesses in Malaysia. Every new market means more growth and more opportunities for Americans. 🇺🇸🇲🇾

A great evening celebrating 250 years of American independence — right here in Sabah.  While formal relations started in 1957, our history dates back to 1865, and American oil exploration began in 1912. Today, @ConocoPhillips and other American businesses are prospering here. That's American leadership at work. 🇺🇸🇲🇾

Eighty years ago, America made a bet that bringing the world’s best and brightest together would make us stronger. It paid off. Today in Malaysia, we celebrated 80 years of Fulbright—and more than 60 years of the program here—with Education Minister Dr. Zambry Abd Kadir as 11 Malaysian universities renewed their Fulbright partnerships. Eight decades later, Fulbright is still opening doors for Americans, building relationships around the world, and bringing talent and ideas back home. That’s an American investment worth celebrating.
