Thank you.
2
Thank you for your welcome.
3
It's actually great to be here to have our sixth strategic dialogue, which is ongoing, and we've begun downstairs a few minutes ago.
4
It's an event where our two countries commit to continue to work together on a range of issues.
5
we are two countries that are bound by a common heritage
6
and by proud histories the united states and greece share a long history of friendship and partnership and alliance in fact
7
the importance of this historical alliance is highlighted by the instability in the world today
8
that we see as a result of conflicts in harmuz with haran
9
or conflicts in the red sea with the when yemen
10
or conflicts in ukraine and russia as you see a world
11
that faces these destabilizing events you recognize how important this alliance
12
with Greece is to the United States it's both historic
13
and historical in its foundation
14
but it is also critical it is a it is a source of stability in an unstable world
15
and I'm thankful we're thankful that Greece remains a great ally and
16
that we share a common understanding this is really important we're
17
not just a great ally we share a common understanding of the threats
18
that face our countries the face the threat that face our societies, and we share a common understanding about the means to address them.
19
One thing we agree on, for example, is that the nations of Europe need to take on a greater share of the burden in defending their continent, and Greece is doing just that.
20
They're on track to meet the commitments that have been made to spend 5 % of their GDP on defense this year,
21
with over 3 .5 % of their GDP being spent on core defense.
22
They're also joining the National Guard Bureau State Partnership Program, and they'll be paired, ironically enough, with the Florida National Guard,
23
which will bring our military collaboration even closer.
24
Greece is also a very close and strategic partner on border security and the fight against mass migration, against fighting, they're a great ally as well,
25
on fighting transnational criminal organizations, on counterterrorism.
26
Due to its geography in the Mediterranean, at the crossroads of many of these transit routes,
27
Greece is particularly exposed to the threats posed by mass migration, by human trafficking, by different forms of terror.
28
As part of our efforts to combat these common threats to our nations, we're proud to announce a new memorandum of understanding establishing a
29
joint security program to strengthen counterterrorism information sharing between our respective law enforcement agencies.
30
What we do not wish to see, under any circumstances, is that the birthplace of the West is threatened by bad decisions,
31
by inaction, by failure to address challenges, and so this program is going to create stronger,
32
more proactive law enforcement cooperation that can readily stop these threats.
33
All of these initiatives and more show that Greece is a true and strong and model NATO NATO ally, a country that understands the importance of burden sharing and
34
that is willing to work with partners to address critical threats to all member states.
35
Beyond the scope of military operations, because that is not the only part of our relationship that is important, Greece is an important partner in securing the alliance's economic future as well.
36
It plays a vital role in global commerce in a variety of ways and in a variety of industries.
37
For example, we share a mutual intent to deepen our collaboration on emerging technology, and we intend to expand U .S.
38
LNG imports and building new gas and electricity interconnectors that strengthen regional energy security and our respective bilateral energy infrastructure.
39
And finally, we're working together to combat antiquities trafficking into the United States,
40
which finances criminal organizations and harms the U .S art market.
41
This is an important initiative to both of our countries.
42
as we in the U .S value the artifacts of our Western ancestors just as much as the modern Greeks do.
43
The State Department, along with our partners in Homeland Security, the FBI, the CBP,
44
are cooperating with Greek law enforcement to safeguard cultural property across
45
the Mediterranean to protect our shared cultural heritage from illicit trafficking networks.
46
So today's strategic dialogue, I hope, reflects the strong relationship between our two countries and the breadth of the issues that we're working together to address.
47
And I'm grateful for the opportunity to spend time with you and with your colleagues, and I look forward to working with all of you in the future to secure our nations and protect our core interests.
48
Thank you.
49
Thank you.
50
Now, we will take four questions.
51
Please state your name and the medium you represent and to whom you address the question.
52
And the Secretary of State will now take on a couple of questions.
53
Please state your name.
54
uh the media outlet you represent and to whom you're directing you're directing your question thank you
55
my question is for secretary rubio mr secretary you uh mentioned uh the issue of energy security of Europe
56
and the differentiation of energy sources and that it is a strategic choice of the U .S administration.
57
I wanted to ask to what extent can Greece rely on the support of the U .S on major projects
58
and initiatives it undertakes in this direction.
59
It's not only the vertical corridor, it's also the ExxonMobil operations, the Chevron explorations out of Crete and the big interconnection,
60
electrical interconnection projects of Greece and Egypt and the other major projects, the electrical interconnection between Greece, Cyprus and Israel.
61
Thank you.
62
We're very committed.
63
I guess the other people in the room don't know what you asked.
64
Oh, they do, because they're hearing it on the little radio thing.
65
Okay.
66
I was about to tell you what he asked me, but you know.
67
So look, we're very committed to this.
68
In addition to the security cooperation, I would argue that energy security is tied to national security and
69
if you don't believe it just see what's happening now in the world with what iran is trying to do
70
and failing to do but trying to do
71
so i think what we have learned is i think we've always known this
72
but i think recent events reminds us of how it is
73
important to have a diverse corridors for energy supply we can never be in a situation where
74
if energy is cut off
75
or energy flows are cut off from one part of the world the whole world is threatened
76
and the ability of nation states to act in their best interest is compromised by the leverage
77
that one country or a rogue regime could have over them.
78
So we're very committed to all of these corridors and to all of these efforts, and Greece is a great partner to do it with.
79
Obviously, some of the issues you've highlighted, some of the things you asked about are tied up into a very delicate situation involving other countries.
80
I won't say who, but other countries that are involved in some of the things that are complicating that.
81
And I would just say that issues of that nature
82
that are that delicate and are that critical are probably best addressed through the private diplomacy outside the realm of press conferences.
83
So let me just leave you with this.
84
We are very committed to the success of these projects,
85
and we're very committed to the partnership we have with Greece on energy security because it's in Greece's national interest,
86
but it's also in ours and I think is furthering the cause of global security.
87
And on those issues that you raised, I acknowledge they involve some very sensitive and delicate topics, and we intend to address them in the proper form so they can be addressed.
88
I know we like to be transparent, but there are things in global affairs that are best not debated at press conferences but handled at the table of dialogue.
89
And by the way, I want to commend your foreign minister for always being someone
90
who's been out there working very hard to seek dialogue and stability in the world.
91
He's committed a lot to it personally, and it's something we appreciate and acknowledge.
92
Thank you.
93
Yes, I believe in the center, Ms. Gaziz.
94
Thank you very much.
95
Olivia Gaziz with CBS News.
96
Two questions for you, Mr. Secretary.
97
See, they always cheat.
98
My American people, you guys ask one question, and they always ask two, they get one, but they ask two.
99
Go ahead.
100
There's a lot of news in the world.
101
They're always cheating.
102
We've got to do a rule here.
103
Go ahead.
104
Maximalists.
105
I know you're both well -versed in fielding.
106
Well, sometimes it's three, it's not even two, it's three, so she's being reasonable.
107
Go ahead.
108
Thank you very much.
109
Mr. Secretary, yesterday the Vice President said that Iran needed to do something meaningful to its nuclear enrichment capacity.
110
Is that to say that the U .S is now open to an enrichment capacity above zero in Iran?
111
I don't think it means that.
112
This is my second question, if you don't mind.
113
If I may, amid increasing congressional scrutiny of Ambassador Guilfoyle's tenure here, I'm wondering, Mr. Secretary, if you've personally reviewed some of those allegations
114
and are confident that all is in compliance with State Department ethics?
115
If you'd like to answer, then I can pose the question to the minister.
116
Pose what question to the minister?
117
I'll just do the third question to the minister.
118
That is to say the only question to the minister.
119
Well, on the second question, this is not the forum where we're going to address that.
120
It's as simple as that.
121
Suffice it to say our embassy here is doing a great job.
122
Our ambassador has been a strong ambassador here.
123
The questions you're asking me, we're not addressing those at press conferences in Greece with a foreign minister
124
and in another country
125
that said um on your first question look it's very certain
126
i don't understand what the confusion is about the nuclear program iran cannot have a nuclear weapon simple period
127
and end of story i'm not going to go into it
128
you know into the details about what would be acceptable
129
or not i can tell you this
130
that they're not going to ever have a nuclear program
131
and anything they agree to
132
that would be acceptable to the united states has to be something that ensures that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.
133
That is what our position is.
134
That is the reason why this began.
135
And it's important to understand, and I've raised this multiple times, I'll raise it again.
136
What Iran was trying to do was build up a conventional capability so massive that they would become untouchable.
137
In essence, they would come to the world in a year or two and say, you can't attack us.
138
We're going to build a nuclear weapon, and there's nothing you can do about it because we have
139
so many missiles and so many drones that if you try to do anything about our nuclear program, we will wipe out every country in the Middle East.
140
We will drive the US forces out of the region.
141
We can do whatever we want.
142
That is what they were trying to achieve.
143
President of the United States, Donald J.
144
Trump, was never going to allow that to happen.
145
He just wasn't.
146
He addressed something that had been ignored for far too long.
147
And so he destroyed their drone program, their drone manufacturing capability.
148
He destroyed their missile capability.
149
He severely eroded both of those capabilities in terms of current launchers.
150
He destroyed their Navy.
151
He destroyed their Air Force.
152
They are far less powerful militarily today than they were and
153
that line of immunity they were trying to hide behind has
154
been erased they will never have a nuclear weapon period not as long as president trump is in office
155
and that to us is the bright line now how you achieve that and
156
so forth you know i think they've had multiple opportunities in
157
the past to reach agreements on those things they have failed to do
158
so now they're facing crippling sanctions their economy is in total
159
and complete free fall i'm happy
160
that for the first time even the media in the u
161
.s is beginning to cover what a bad situation iran faces
162
the straits of hormuz are open there's almost as much oil
163
flowing out now as there was before this conflict began
164
so they've lost complete control of the straits and their economy
165
and it's not not only in free fall now the iranian economy is about to reach a place
166
that few countries in the world have been in terms of how bad it's going to get
167
and it's all the fault all the fault of the radical shia clerics
168
that make the decisions in that country they are the ones
169
that have put the poor people of Iran in the situation that they're in, because every dollar and every penny that that regime gets,
170
they don't spend it on roads or bridges or helping improve the lives of the Iranian people.
171
They spend that money on Hezbollah, and Hamas, and militias that fire rockets out of Iraq, and the Houthis.
172
That's who they spend their money on.
173
They should have spent their money on their people, and instead they spend their money on terrorism and on weapons.
174
So hopefully that'll change.
175
But yeah, they'll never have a nuclear weapon.
176
Thank you very much, Mr. Foreign Minister, for taking the question.
177
As President Trump weighs the potential of renewed strikes on Iran, is consideration being given in Greece to support those strikes from Souda Bay,
178
especially in light of the events at Fairfield that demonstrated increased Iranian threats to U .S assets in Europe?
179
Thank you.
180
First of all, let me point out
181
that Greece has a stance of principle on all matters have to do with armed conflict,
182
whether this be Ukraine or Middle East.
183
This stance is the respect of international law and the support of those who defend themselves versus the aggressor.
184
In this sense, the Greek state not only supported the Greek territory and the Sudabay,
185
but also became a security provider.
186
We provided security to neighboring countries.
187
We provided security to Cyprus when it was directly threatened, to Bulgaria, to countries of the Gulf.
188
Now, Greece, with its advanced defense system and its very strong geopolitical position is in a position to provide security,
189
to be an exporter of security and be a pillar of stability.
190
As I've already mentioned, Greece is already a major player in the Red Sea operation under the use of the European Union,
191
the ASPIDES operation for the safe navigation of vessels passing through the Red Sea.
192
If it is necessary to participate in additional operations then in the framework of a greater
193
operation that will be responsible for the smooth passage from the Gulf it is obvious
194
that Greece will once again be at the forefront next question good Good morning,
195
Vasilis Nedos, Kathimerini Newspaper.
196
My question is to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
197
You've already mentioned the operations in which Greece participates in the Red Sea.
198
There are many open and clear requests from the U .S side for the participation in other U .S.
199
initiatives in the Middle East, Hormuz, Red Sea, and the greater regions.
200
So my question is whether Greece intends to participate in such missions.
201
And I wanted to ask you whether you discussed with the
202
Secretary of State for the Greece -Israeli relationship how this is upsetting one of our neighbors.
203
As regards Greece's participation in operations, let me point out that the operations that that take place in the Red Sea,
204
in the Mediterranean, in the Indian Ocean are all supplementary to U .S initiatives,
205
therefore they are not in antithesis, but they are supplementary.
206
As you know, Greece has a leading role in the presence in the Red Sea especially.
207
On the other hand, if it becomes necessary,
208
then we'll be in a situation to work with the U .S.
209
and provide the necessary assistance,
210
maritime assistance in the Hormuz Straits if the situation allows it and if there is a viable peace process.
211
Let me point out that Greece is not only interested in that because it is a leading shipping force,
212
but it is interested in that because through shipping, we ensure the supply chain,
213
energy security, and at the end of the day, prosperity of the peoples.
214
As we got the discussion we had with Mr. Secretary regarding the greater region,
215
we discussed all the issues that concern Israel as well.
216
As you know, Greece has developed a strategic relations with Israel.
217
We've already developed varied actions with Israel.
218
I would like to mention once again the three -plus -one framework
219
that includes Cyprus and the U .S and it concerns energy matters, but also geopolitical affairs.
220
our understanding on the Middle East.
221
We share the same understanding of Middle Eastern issues with Mr. Secretary.
222
There should be peace in the region.
223
The 20 -point plan should go ahead to phase B in order to ensure viable peace
224
and reconstruction in Gaza and all actions,
225
especially in the Western Bank that create impediments should cease?
226
Please, I would like to stress the one, because we are a bit behind schedule.
227
Good luck.
228
Please.
229
Thank you.
230
John Hudson with The Washington Post.
231
Mr. Secretary, will the State Department continue telling foreign governments not to facilitate Maria Carina Machado's return to Venezuela
232
and a bigger societal question?
233
You're talking like an auctioneer.
234
Slow down.
235
I'm just trying to make sure I get everything in.
236
He's talking fast.
237
He's trying to get another question.
238
What was your first question?
239
That is correct.
240
Will the State Department continue telling foreign governments not to facilitate?
241
Who told you we said that?
242
That's widely reported at this point.
243
It is? By who?
244
Who widely reported that?
245
The Wall Street Journal.
246
Oh.
247
So it's in the newspaper.
248
It's true?
249
Because I can show you a lot of articles that are in the newspaper that are not true.
250
so this is I always love these stories you guys get somebody to tell you something then you report it
251
so now it's an established fact and then you ask me about it as
252
if somehow I'm responding to something that's been factually proven I
253
don't know what you're talking about honestly I don't know you're you're just
254
because you guys report something doesn't mean it's true you know this right I'm sure you know this okay
255
so the premise of your question is not true
256
we've never asked anyone not to let anybody else in anywhere in the world I've told you, I've said this repeatedly about,
257
so I don't even, I don't know how to answer a question that's based on something that is false.
258
Well, how about a bigger societal question on artificial intelligence?
259
Where do you stand on the government's role?
260
It's called super intelligence.
261
I figured you might challenge that language.
262
Where do you stand on the government's role in preventing frontier labs from threatening the future of the human race?
263
And Mr. Minister, where does Greece and the European Union stand on regulating American AI companies?
264
Well, we have just on superintel, it doesn't matter where I stand on it.
265
It's not about where I stand.
266
Where's the U .S government?
267
The U .S government has set up a process, as you know.
268
Jay Clayton is running that task force, and it's going to establish how the U .S is going to interact with attempts to regulate,
269
attempts to mitigate against the potential downsides of superintelligence, intelligence but also the ability to benefit from the good things
270
that it's going to do so we've got a task force set up
271
that he's chairing and it has a good group of people involved in it
272
and there's where you're going to find the
273
and look this is a new issue I mean it's not a new issue
274
but it's an issue that's rapidly evolved in terms of the consciousness of people and nation states having to address it, and we've stood up a process.
275
to do that as far as the U .S response is concerned.
276
And we'll work very closely with our allies around the world as well.
277
So I would just refer you to that process and that task force as it begins its work.
278
You saw what the president did last week when they had a gathering of all the leaders in that field.
279
They had a joint declaration that sort of laid out some very broad outlines as to how we're going to approach this.
280
And the goal is this, as best I could describe it in the most simplistic terms.
281
Super intelligence is going to happen, or what people call AI, is going to happen.
282
Okay, it's happening already.
283
Here's the question, how do we take the positives of it
284
and harness it in a way that serves the interests of our country, and how do we mitigate or prevent the dangers of it?
285
And to begin, you have to understand what are the potential benefits and what are the potential downsides,
286
and then what role can government play in terms of a regulatory structure to influence those two things?
287
Highlighting and making sure the positives are enjoyed by our country, mitigating against the dangers.
288
That's what this process is designed to do, and they're working very quickly, and they have to work very quickly because that technology is evolving extremely fast.
