I do not know how you can negotiate with the CCP when they're knowingly abusing these global systems to avoid purposefully their emissions.

This should be an agreement that applies equally to all, and not favoring China.

They are the No. 1 offender of polluting the planet.

We need to take this issue extremely seriously.

I just came back from Taiwan 2 months ago, and I was greeted by an armada of battleships surrounding the island.

I believe that they're the greatest threat to our national security.

The diplomacy that we need to meet these challenges head on requires that we lead by example.

As a former Army Ranger, and in my work in Congress through the Foreign Affairs and Armed Services Committee and the Intel Committee, I've directly wrestled with the national security impact of our changing climate.

This global problem then requires global solutions.

The climate crisis is going to have profound impacts on our water supply, on drought conditions that increase the risk of destructive wildfires, and limit agricultural yields.

Mr. Kerry, nobody voted for you in this body. It seems like, once again, the rules do not apply to the President's inner circle.

I hope that they will ratify this very capable partner to join this alliance by the summit next month.

I expect to hear from Mr. Jones about the U.S.'s plans to press our allies at next month's summit to live up to their commitments and to share the burden of collective security.

I was honored to be joined in that effort by Ranking Member Keating, a true ally in this fight.

I believe the United States must be actively involved in these discussions, but implementing such guarantees would require Congress to appropriate the necessary funds.

Eventual NATO membership is the most solid guarantee against future Russian aggression.

I firmly believe that NATO allies must leave the summit in Vilnius with a clear path charted for Ukraine to join the alliance once conditions allow.

I have a big problem with the United Nations and its funding.

I am going to boycott them. Any hearing I have in human rights, Amnesty is not invited, nor is Human Rights Watch.

I have been disgusted with Amnesty International Human Rights Watch... to sit there and take that type of language and smear Israel with it is appalling.

I mean, at least our Government did a very good job with the 9/11 Commission, so effectively run by Tom Kaine and Lee Hamilton.

Tough, robust, principled, diplomatic engagement on the international stage, not retreating and surrendering to isolationism is the only path forward.

The disproportionate focus of the General Assembly and its subagencies on the Jewish state should be alarming to all.

This is the ideology that fuels dangerous conspiracy theories, like the claim that a cabal of Jews is organized mass influxes of immigrants.

The threat connecting these incidents is clear in my view. It is the viciously antisemitic, racist, and xenophobic ideology of white supremacists.
