We want a very broad global sanction regime that isolates Iran, encourages it to change its strategic calculus.

We want to be responsive and supportive of this free, fair, and credible election process, which has led to a new President.

We were concerned about his welfare. We raised this with the Cuban delegation during the migration talks.

We are targeting a lot of these proposed sanctions against the Revolutionary Guard, which we believe is playing an increasingly important role in the politics and the economy of Iran.

We are very supportive of the work that we believe should be done to support those people of conscience inside Cuba.

We have been heartened by the positive response from Russia. They, I think, in their response prove the wisdom of the President's policy of engagement.

I believe, with all my heart, that we are going to be so sorry if we don't get this up and going.

Our No. 1 objective and No. 1 obligation is the security of the American people.

I have long been a supporter of engagement with countries like China and trade with China, but it seems increasingly over the last year or two that human rights, religious freedom in China, Egypt, India, Vietnam, other countries, more and…

The world wants the United States to lead, even if that is not what they tell you or what they say to their own press.

The State Department and USAID are taking a lead in carrying out the United States foreign policy and national security agenda.

These initiatives are designed to enhance American security, to help people in need, and, third, to give the American people a strong return on their investment.

Any kind of reconciliation or reintegration effort has to take into account the rights of women, and we are going to do everything we can to try to protect and advance that.

Our aim is not to create dependency. We don't want to just pass out fish. We want to teach people to fish.

I greatly appreciate the work that Senator Lugar and Senator Casey have done to help target the United States effort when it comes to global hunger and food security.

I think that there are, as you know, some legislative fixes that need to be done so that compacts can be extended.

I thank you for recognizing Indonesia's importance.

We're actually increasing the MCC budget. We have a 15 percent increase over fiscal year 2010.

I have publicly applauded the Bush administration for both MCC and PEPFAR which I think were significant advances in how we think about and do development.

I want to associate myself with the remarks of Senator Leahy about Iran.

We have laid out for the Syrians the need for greater cooperation with respect to Iraq.

When President Obama came to office, he very clearly, and I think correctly, laid out what we needed to do.

We hope that that will commence shortly. We think it's absolutely essential that they begin to talk about the final status issues that divide them.

We need to enlist every possible tool that we can bring to bear on this.

Over the past 6 weeks in Haiti, I've been reminded again of the importance of American leadership.
