Iran is clearly not ready to make a deal – at least, not one they're willing to live by.

Iran is begging us, both directly and indirectly, let's do a deal, let's talk.

The president's policy is 'a head for an eye.' I mean, honestly, that's what it's going to be.

Obviously, the war in Ukraine, I think, has, in many ways, impeded the ability of Russia and the United States to find areas of agreement on other topics.

The United States calls on the international community to join forces to demonstrate to the Murillo-Ortega dictatorship that it cannot expect to maintain business as usual with other nations when it is thwarting the basic tenets of our…

The Nicaraguan people have the right to choose their own leaders through democratic elections.

Daniel Ortega’s declaration that under his family’s dictatorship Nicaragua will never again hold elections lays bare their true authoritarian nature.

The United States, as I said earlier and I repeat again, stands with ASEAN, and we’re working together to strengthen our economies and our people through forward-looking collaboration.

The future and the story of the 21st century will be written in this region and by how events unfold here.

Our partnership with each of your countries and the region at large, it’s in the national interest of the United States, and we will never abandon it.

What is at stake here is not simply the issue of what’s happening in the Straits of Hormuz. It’s a very fundamental principle about freedom of navigation.

If they’re serious, we’re serious. If they’re not, then we will do what is necessary to protect that, our interests, and also the interests of our allies.

The United States is always committed to diplomacy. We are open-minded and always willing to engage in negotiated settlements of differences.

And so we’re glad to be with you today and to reaffirm that relationship and our commitment to the U.S. and Philippines’ relationship.

Well, thank you for welcoming me, first of all, and to congratulate you on the great job hosting this conference, which, in addition to being so critically important for the region, provides us the opportunity to interact with so many…

If these consequences didn't exist, then today we would be living in a world where a significant percentage of the energy supply in this region and 20% of the world's energy supply is being held hostage by a rogue regime.

When those commitments are not kept, which is what’s happened in this particular case, then there will be consequences. And that has to happen.

The United States remains open and willing to engage in positive negotiations and talks so long as the commitments that are made are kept.

If that is threatened, then I think the global economy is threatened, and the rules which have underpinned 150 years of international trade and commerce are also threatened, and that cannot be allowed to happen.

If we create a precedent in the Middle East where a nation-state can decide that they are going to control an international waterway and, if you don't pay them, blow up your ships, we have created a very dangerous precedent.

The problem we're having right now is they're not serious about talks. If they're serious, we're serious.

One leaked through," is how Secretary of State Marco Rubio described the Iranian attack on an air base in Jordan that killed two U.S. soldiers and left one missing in action on Friday.

I am confident Colombia’s best days are ahead.

We’re going to continue to respond. If the door opens to diplomacy – if the guys that want to do something productive for Iran win and take control of that system, or take control of the negotiations – that’ll be a very positive…

The world has to decide whether or not it's going to allow an international waterway to be under the control of Iran.
