U.S. Ambassador to the EU
I welcome today’s vote in the European Parliament’s International Trade Committee in favor of implementing the EU’s tariff commitments under the U.S.-EU Joint Statement on Trade. The United States implemented commitments made in the Joint Statement shortly after the agreement was reached between President Trump and President von der Leyen last July. I commend INTA Chairman @berndlange for his leadership of the INTA committee, and INTA members for their positive vote. We now urge a full EP vote as soon as possible along with full agreement among the EU institutions. Let’s seize this positive momentum to deliver stability and opportunity for the largest and most comprehensive trade and investment relationship in history.

Excellent visit to the @Ericsson factory in Dallas, Texas with CEO @Borje_Ekholm. Strengthening our domestic telecommunications infrastructure and securing our 5G supply chains is a top national interest. High-tech manufacturing like this is the backbone of our future economic security. 🇺🇸 🚀

🇺🇸 🤝 🇸🇪 Today, the Kingdom of Sweden becomes the first member of the European Union to sign the Pax Silica Declaration. What is unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz right now is a lesson. Iran is deliberately weaponizing a single point of failure in the global economy to hold the world hostage through a narrow corridor of water. This lesson is not only about oil. It is about dependency. It is about what happens when the physical infrastructure of global civilization — the chokepoints, the corridors, the cables, the ports — becomes the battlefield. Sweden is not merely a diplomatic partner. Sweden is a 5G power. Ericsson — born in Stockholm, built over 150 years of relentless engineering — is one of the only companies on Earth capable of building trusted, sovereign-grade 5G infrastructure at scale. We are building the logistics architecture, the mineral supply chains, the refining capacity, the manufacturing redundancy, and the investment vehicles so that no adversary — ever — can weaponize a chokepoint and threaten our economies. state.gov/on-the-occasio…

This is what allied Al sovereignty at scale looks like. A U.S. company, a trusted Korean partner, 250 megawatts of sovereign compute—owned by the nation that needs it, built on the alliance that makes it possible. The countries that will define the future of AI governance are the ones building the infrastructure now. America's job is to make sure our allies are building it with us. The AI Export Program is on a roll. 🇺🇸 🇰🇷
Reflection AI@reflection_ai

Reflection is partnering with Shinsegae Group to build a 250-megawatt sovereign AI factory for the Republic of Korea. Open intelligence. Built on trust between allies. Owned by the nations that need it most. The future of sovereign AI. Read more in the @WSJ.

Great meeting with @Frohnmaier_AfD this week. A patriot who loves Germany! As President Trump has made clear, Europe’s economic future depends on getting the big bets right—energy, technology, and the rules that govern them. AMERICA WANTS A STRONG EUROPE!
Marc Bernhard, MdB@MarcBernhardAfD

🇩🇪 Was wir für eine starke Zukunft brauchen In den vergangenen Tagen hatte ich zusammen mit unserem Ministerpräsidentenkandidaten @Frohnmaier_AfD in Washington, D.C. intensive Gespräche – unter anderem mit Jacob Helberg, Under Secretary of State for Economic Affairs. Dabei wurde deutlich: Die Herausforderungen für unseren Industriestandort sind groß, aber die Chancen für neue Partnerschaften und Innovation ebenso. Was Deutschland und Baden-Württemberg jetzt brauchen: 1️⃣ Bezahlbare Energie: Der Ausstieg aus Kern- und Kohlekraft sowie eine ideologisch geprägte Energiepolitik treiben die Energiepreise in die Höhe, zerstören unsere industrielle Basis und vernichten Arbeitsplätze. Das stoppen wir: Wir werden Kernkraftwerke wieder ans Netz bringen und Energieversorgung wieder sicher, planbar und bezahlbar machen. 2️⃣ Starke transatlantische Partnerschaft: Deutsche Ingenieurskunst und amerikanische KI-Führerschaft können gemeinsam neue industrielle Dynamik schaffen. 3️⃣ Innovationsfreundliche Politik: Baden-Württemberg muss offen sein für neue Technologien, mutige Ideen und internationale Kooperation. 4️⃣ Eine handlungsfähige Regierung: Zehn Jahre Stillstand und wirtschaftlicher Rückschritt unter Grün-Schwarz sind genug. 👉 Baden-Württemberg verdient ein Comeback. 🚀

Illegal fishing and drug smuggling are big problems facing Pacific nations, including both the US and Tonga. The Prime Minister and I boarded a visiting US Coast Guard cutter to see its capabilities firsthand. And the Crown Prince and I signed an enhanced “ship rider” agreement to enhance cooperation between the Coast Guard and Tongan authorities. Also great discussions on energy security and fuel storage. Great day for US/Tonga relations! 🇺🇸🤝🇹🇴
