U.S. Secretary of State Rubio on national power

Overview

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued a statement via the U.S. Embassy in Tirana regarding the foundations of national power. Rubio argued that foreign policy is tied to economic strength, energy security, border control, and the ability to secure strategic resources.

He stated, “A country that is not able to build ships, produce medicines, control immigration, or ensure access to vital resources, cannot protect its people, cannot protect its interests, and cannot protect its way of life.”

The remarks were released amid political instability and protests in Albania, where demonstrators have called for the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama. The statement highlights a contrast between the U.S. definition of state strength and Albania’s current economic challenges, including energy vulnerabilities and reliance on imports.
