Mike Pompeo

Human rights are universal, and LGBTI people are entitled to the same respect, freedoms, and protections as everyone else.

Russian efforts to undermine democratic processes, the sovereignty of its neighbors, and international stability are unacceptable.

Senator, it is what matters. It is what matters.

The United States does not and will not recognize the Kremlin's purported annexation of Crimea.

Military power alone will not bring peace to Afghanistan or stop the terrorist threat arising in that country.

I have complete confidence in the findings of the Joint Investigation Team (JIT), and I call on Russia to account for its role in the July 2014 downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 over eastern Ukraine.

It would be my judgment that each of those is necessary.

President Trump has stated that he accepts our intelligence community's conclusion that Russia meddled in the 2016 election.

I think it was more than appropriate that President Trump meet with Vladimir Putin.

I am very confident that I received a comprehensive debriefing from President Trump.

We've been clear with Russia that its malign activity has consequences.

We have consistently told China that the United States strongly objects to the Chinese government's attempts to compel private firms.

The United States calls on Russia to respect the principles to which it has long claimed to adhere and to end its occupation of Crimea.

I think their willingness to acknowledge that risk varies.

Iran has been a central point that we have focused on with respect to U.S. policy in Syria.

The United States policy with respect to de-confliction with Russia has not changed.

I think we can meet with less than perfect citizens of the world and hopefully move the ball in the right direction.

The Iranian expansionism that the Supreme Leader and Qasem Soleimani so favor is not what they are looking for.

I came here to talk about American foreign policy today.

Peace is worth the effort. The United States and its allies are committed to the same goal--the final, fully verified denuclearization of North Korea, as agreed to by Chairman Kim Jong Un.

The President has been clear with respect to trade policy. The Europeans will not accept our agriculture products.

There are some countries that share our position.

Our objective remains the final, fully-verified denuclearization of North Korea, as agreed to by Chairman Kim Jong Un.

There is an enormous economic challenge inside of Iran today. It is an economic structure that simply does not work.

The President raised North Korea's human rights record in his summit meetings with Chairman Kim Jong Un, and the United States will continue to raise these issues at all levels going forward.
