So there will be some meaty elements to this economic partnership, in addition to setting forth a plan to end up discussing and then negotiating arrangements with other countries on issues like supply chain resilience and decarbonization of the economy. Accompanying the declaration, the U.S. will have a variety of specific announcements on labor pathways, on cracking down on smuggling networks, and other steps that we will take. And other countries also will be making announcements to show that they’re putting skin in the game to help address this challenge. That will be in partnership with the Pan American Health Organization. And so, much of the substance of this summit is designed to tackle the challenges this region is facing head on.

Obama administration

He thinks those things go hand in hand, like the ones President Biden discussed yesterday while he met with Senator Murphy to get guns out of the hands of dangerous people. He’ll be, over the course of the next three days, obviously in front of and addressing the press in various ways. And I think by the end of this, you can be pretty confident that he will be displaying — putting on full display America’s raucous democracy in all of its wonderful and attractive forms. So just as an example, at the summit, the President will make a financial commitment to IDB Invest, to the private sector financing arm of the Inter-American Development Bank.

We want to make sure that there’s a divestment, that, you know, TikTok should not be owned — or Americans should not be — should not be having to worry about using a platform that is owned by — you know, by a country that’s trying to harm us. That’s the national security concern here. But as I’ve said before at this podium — and as you’ve heard from Secretary Austin, the Chairman, and other senior military officials — there is no silver bullet in this conflict. One capability is not going to be the ultimate solution. It is an amalgam of capabilities that come together and combine with the bravery and skill of Ukraine’s fighters that’s going to make the difference in this conflict.

By the end of this year, we will have doubled it again. And as a result, we’re going to be able to provide, from our own production, steady and significant supplies of artillery to Ukraine. Second, our allies, as the President said this morning, have been mobilizing in support of Ukraine alongside us. Just yesterday, the UK announced a significant new package of military aid for Ukraine, alongside major investments that they are making in their defense industrial base, putting their defense budget on a path to reach 2.5 percent of their GDP by the end of the decade. And the United States welcomes these moves from a stalwart ally.

Woodrow Wilson administration

It is important that — that communities feel safe and important that students feel safe. So, look, I would say, more broadly — and I said this moments ago — this is a deeply painful, painful moment for many communities, and we understand that. But the President believes that free speech, debate, and nondiscrimination on college campuses are important. And that — and so, he’ll always be very clear — we will always be very clear about here — about that here. And we will start to see the impact of that month by month as they implement the new mobilization law and as they implement the new directives from the Minister of Defense and the — the new commander of the — of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. And, frankly, for those people — innocent civilians — who are not in Rafah, they too need and deserve shelter, support, food, medicine, and everything else.

Biden administration

The practice of regularly scheduled presidential news conference was instituted during the Eisenhower administration. Hagerty abolished the longstanding rule that the president could not be directly quoted without permission—for the first time, everything that the president said at a press conference could be printed verbatim. I would see this as a commitment that he has made not just to young people but to Americans as our role, as the United States — obviously, as the United States of America, to make sure that we are doing our part in dealing with climate crisis. And so, we’re going to continue to have those conversations with Senate — Senate members on making sure that we move forward with it, encouraging to pass it. This is something that our Office of Leg Affairs; our, obviously, National Security Council has been on top of not just this past week, not just today, but for several weeks now. And we want to strongly see it move forward.

— it’s important for schools to protect students. It is one of the things that we have to do as — respecting — and, also, they must do this respecting of — of freedom — their freedom, obviously, to debate on their campuses. He is the most pro-union president ever, and we’re going to continue to lift up union members. We believe that they should certainly be paid fairly. We believe that they should get — get a contract that is fair, and we’ve said that over and over again. You know, the President had that conversation with the Prime Minister about making sure that we protect innocent civilians, as I just mentioned, and also the human- — humanitarian aid workers.

Some states that saw increases in recent weeks are now experiencing steep declines. For instance, the price of gas fell by 31 cents in California over the past week. In Oregon and Washington, it has come down by about a quarter per gallon. Ohio, Wisconsin, and Michigan have also seen prices drop by 13 to 15 cents per gallon over this past week alone. Our Special Envoy for the Horn of Africa, Ambassador Mike Hammer, has been in the region the past several weeks and will be participating as well.

He built a broad coalition that flowed critical aid to Ukraine as the Ukrainian people defended themselves and then won the battle for Kyiv, the battle for Kharkiv, the battle for Kherson, and regained half the territory that Russia occupied since 2022. But it was also a reminder, in getting to see her, that there are still Americans and others being held hostage by Hamas. And we’re working day in, day out to ensure all of them also are able to get safely home to their loved ones.

And this summit needs to produce tangible action against each of those challenges. And that’s where I started, and that’s where I’ll finish. It’s food, it’s energy and climate, it’s health, it’s migration, and it’s inclusive economic growth. And otherwise, we cannot do anything other than take the course of action that we think is strong, steadfast, and clear.

We have to call out hateful, violent rhetoric. So, we’re going to let that process play out. So, I think Columbia is going to have to speak to their personnel issues. And what we will speak to is, more broadly, what we expect and what we want to see and how painful it is for many communities here. So, we’re going to continue to do that forcefully, condemn antisemitism from this administration.
