From the U.S. European Command (EUCOM) Conference in Wiesbaden to meetings here at the Embassy and the Holy See, we stayed busy advancing American interests. This week I welcomed the Knights of Columbus and the White House Faith Office, our partners in defending religious liberty. I also joined a Diplomacy Festival 2026 panel on why American leadership in superintelligence matters.
I wrapped up the week in Salzburg with my family, visiting places from The Sound of Music, a favorite of many Americans, including Pope Leo XIV! 🎶🏔️
"So long, farewell!" 🇺🇸🇻🇦
