My mission is to lead you, america can't achieve its objectives, absent you all.

I'm confident that I know who you are, you chose to be a Foreign Service officer, or a civil servant, or to come work here in many other capacities, and to do so because you're patriots and great Americans and because you want to be an important part of America's face to the world.

One of the first rules is don't talk down to people, right, so I'll speak to you all right up here, exactly.

They may have been demoralized, but they seemed in good spirits, they are hopeful that State Department will get State Department swagger back, that we will be out doing the things that they came onboard at State Department to do : to be professional, to deliver diplomacy, American diplomacy around the world.

I am looking forward to helping you all achieve that. by Mike Pompeo

It's an important day for the President's first trip to this important place.

I talked about getting back our swagger, and I'll fill in what I mean by that, but it's important. The United States diplomatic corps needs to be in every corner, every stretch of the world, executing missions on behalf of this country and it is my humble, noble undertaking to achieve that.

United States are determined to make sure it never possesses a nuclear weapon. The Iran deal in its current form does not provide that assurance, we will continue to work with our European allies to fix that deal. But if a deal can not be reached, the [ United States ] President has said that he will leave that deal.

I talked about getting the release of the American detainees, and then we talked a great deal about what it might look like, what this complete, verifiable, irreversible mechanism might look like. And so, when the two leaders, the only people that can make those decisions, will be in a room together, they can set the course.

There's been no decision, so the team is working and I am sure we will have lots of conversations to deliver what the president has made clear.

There's been no decision, so the team is working and I am sure we will have lots of conversations to deliver what the president has made clear, absent a substantial fix, absent overcoming the flaws of the deal, he is unlikely to stay in that deal.

The President has been clear -- absent a substantial fix, absent overcoming the shortcomings, the flaws of the deal -- The President is unlikely to stay in that deal past this May.

I don't want to say anything about the meeting itself. by Mike Pompeo

I don't want to say anything about the meeting itself.

The economic pressure that has been put in place by this global effort that President Donald Trump has led has led President Donald Trump to believe that it is in President Donald Trump best interests to come to the table and talk about de-nuclearization.

In the event it fails. by Mike Pompeo

In the event it fails.

The work that is being done here today is invaluable and our objectives are important and this mission means a lot to the United States of America.

I don't recall what Mike Pompeo asked me that day precisely. by Mike Pompeo

I don't recall what Mike Pompeo asked me that day precisely.

America is uniquely blessed, and with those blessings comes a duty to lead, as I have argued throughout my time in public service, if we do not lead the calls for democracy, prosperity, and human rights around the world, who will ? No other nation is equipped with the same blend of power and principle.

We are the world’s finest espionage service, we are going to go out there and do our damnedest to steal secrets on behalf of the American people. And I wanted to get back on our front foot.
