Secretary of State Marco Rubio will travel to Brussels, Belgium from April 2-4 to attend the NATO Foreign Ministers Meeting. During his visit, Rubio will engage with fellow foreign ministers to discuss security priorities for the Alliance, including increased Allied defense investment and securing lasting peace in Ukraine.
Rubio will also participate in a session with representatives of the Indo-Pacific Partners to address the shared threat of China to the Euro-Atlantic and Indo-Pacific Alliances. This discussion aims to strengthen cooperation between the US and its allies in countering the growing influence of China in the region.
In addition, Rubio will discuss plans for The Hague Summit this summer, a key diplomatic event that brings together leaders from across the globe to address pressing global issues. The Hague Summit promises to be a significant opportunity for international cooperation and dialogue on some of the world's most pressing challenges.
Rubio's visit to Brussels marks an important moment in US-NATO relations, as both parties work to strengthen their alliance and address emerging security threats.
