Update on the Trump Administration’s Robust and Rapid Delivery of Life-Saving U.S. Assistance to Venezuela 06/29/2026 You are subscribed to Press Releases. Here is new content for this topic:   Update on the Trump Administration’s Robust and Rapid Delivery of Life-Saving U.S. Assistance to Venezuela 06/29/2026 07:44 AM EDT Office of the Spokesperson Update on the Trump Administration’s Robust and Rapid Delivery of Life-Saving U.S. Assistance to Venezuela Media Note June 29, 2026 In the wake of the devastating earthquakes that struck north-central Venezuela on June 24, 2026, the Trump Administration has mounted a swift, comprehensive, and whole-of-government response to save lives and deliver urgently needed relief to the Venezuelan people. This State Department led response is also harnessing the power of American innovation by partnering with leading private companies and non-governmental organizations to increase the speed and expand reach of relief efforts, bringing the full strength of the U.S. private sector to bear alongside our government response. The United States is committed to sustaining this response and ensuring that the Venezuelan people receive the full measure of American support as they work to recover from this tragedy. Additional Funding for Assistance Based on the urgent needs identified by U.S. first responders on the ground, the United States has increased its financial commitment to this life-saving response to more than $300 million. On top of previously announced humanitarian funding, the Department has committed an additional $50 million in funding for critical partner organization operations. This brings total funding for partner organizations to $200 million, including $100 million in bilateral funding and $100 million in support through UNOCHA’s country pooled fund. All U.S. humanitarian funding has been directed to a range of trusted international and non-governmental partners with proven capacity to deliver life-saving assistance quickly and effectively. Partners include Samaritan’s Purse, Catholic Relief Services, UNICEF, IOM, WFP, International Medical Corp, Project Hope and the Red Cross. These funds will provide emergency medical care, food assistance, water and sanitation, shelter, protection, and logistics. The Department is also supporting unique U.S. government emergency response capacities, including specialized civilian and military logistics, search and rescue, and the delivery of pre-positioned emergency supplies from the Department of State’s disaster response warehouses. These efforts leverage the Trump Administration’s investment in fast, efficient, and focused disaster response capacities, including the Bureau of Disaster and Humanitarian Response’s new supply warehouse and disaster hub in Miami, Florida. Leveraging Private Partners and the Generosity of the American People The Department of State is proud to be partnering with Global Empowerment Mission (GEM), a South Florida-based humanitarian organization, and Walmart to deliver urgently needed relief supplies to communities in Venezuela affected by the devastating earthquakes of June 24, 2026. This partnership leverages the capabilities of U.S. private companies and organizations to maximize the speed and reach of life-saving assistance to the Venezuelan people. GEM, headquartered in Doral, Florida, is a leading humanitarian response organization with deep roots in the South Florida community. GEM previously partnered with the U.S. government during the 2025 Hurricane Melissa response. GEM already is operating multiple donation collection points across the greater Miami area and coordinating with municipalities, faith-based organizations, and Venezuelan diaspora groups to support the earthquake response.  Walmart is working with its stores across the greater Miami area to make customers aware of needed items and provide information on drop-off locations. South Florida residents can donate specified relief items directly at: GEM Warehouse,1850 NW 84th Ave, Suite 100, Doral, Florida 33126. Americans wishing to help the people of Venezuela can find resources on our webpage. Coordination with the U.S. Military The Department of State is grateful for the tremendous support of the warfighters at the Department of War in these humanitarian relief operations. Working closely with State, the United States Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) is supporting relief logistics on the ground, leveraging unique American air, naval and logistics capabilities to power a coordinated and effective international response. The key to any successful relief operation is coordinated logistics. That is why the U.S. military helped to rapidly repair and reopen the Simón Bolívar International airport in Caracas for international relief operations. Given damage to airport infrastructure and the significant amount of international aid arriving, the United States has assumed a leading role in coordinating airfield and humanitarian operations at the airport. Working alongside the interim Venezuelan authorities, the U.S. Air Force has deployed a specialized expeditionary airfield management team which is supporting tower and ground operations to help international humanitarian flights land safely, unload their cargo in an organized manner, and get critical supplies to the frontlines. SOUTHCOM is also deploying assets to enable the delivery of critical supplies by sea. The USS Fort Lauderdale has been positioned off the cost of La Guaira and U.S. Sailors and Marines are delivering supplies with landing and amphibious craft directly to the most affected coastal areas. A specialized naval operations team has also deployed to the Port of La Guaira, damaged by the earthquake, and will work with Venezuelan authorities to repair and reopen the port for humanitarian operations. Working with the Department of State’s Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART), SOUTHCOM has also continued to deploy unique American aviation and rotary assets to aid critical life-saving search and rescue operations. U.S. aircraft have conducted aerial surveys to identify survivors and assess damage, transport search-and-rescue teams from the United States and international partners to critical zones, and to move relief teams and supplies to the frontline. SOUTHCOM has deployed various aircraft types including the C-17 Globemaster III, C-130H Hercules, M/V-22 Osprey, CH-47 Chinook, UH-1Y Venom and U/MH-60 Blackhawk. All U.S. military operations are completely self-sustaining, with personnel on the ground requiring zero local resources as they work tirelessly to deliver critical relief to the people of Venezuela. American Search-and-Rescue Teams in Action The United States has deployed four world-class Type I Urban Search-and-Rescue teams to Venezuela, comprising more than 300 of America’s finest first responders and 23 search canines. Fairfax County Fire and Rescue arrived with 79 members and 6 canines; Los Angeles County Fire and Rescue with 73 members and 6 canines; Miami-Dade County Fire Rescue with 80 members and 6 canines; and City of Miami Department of Fire Rescue with 79 members and 5 canines. These highly trained teams are working around the clock to locate survivors, provide emergency medical care, and conduct structural assessments in the hardest-hit areas. Anticipating the Long-Term Needs of the Venezuelan People Even as the United States mounts a robust emergency relief response in Venezuela, the Department of State is already planning for the longer-term needs of the Venezuelan people, including the shelter needs of the many Venezuelans who have lost their homes. Assisting Americans The Trump Administration has no higher priority than the safety and security of Americans. The Department of State is working tirelessly to provide consular assistance to U.S. citizens and their families in the affected areas. We are also monitoring conditions in Venezuela as recovery work proceeds. Americans in Venezuela can reach us 24/7 at +1-202-501-4444 for assistance. Family and friends in the United States who are concerned about Americans in Venezuela can call toll free +1-888-407-4747.

Assistant Secretary Kapur underscored the longstanding bilateral relationship, noting that the United States recognized Tajikistan’s independence nearly 35 years ago, and affirmed that the U.S.-Tajik relationship is advancing President Trump’s foreign policy priorities of prosperity and security. Looking ahead, Tajikistan announced it will host the upcoming B5+1 meeting, a significant step that will further enhance commercial diplomacy and deepen economic partnerships across Central Asia.

Carlos Antonio Lloga Dominguez – who spent more than a decade working as a foreign subversive for the Communist Cuban regime’s premier influence and intelligence front group in the United States – and his wife and son are now in federal custody pending removal from our country. Lloga Dominguez spent more than a decade employed by the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the People (ICAP). He has continued to maintain ties to the transnational communist subversion network throughout his time residing in our nation. ICAP, which Secretary Rubio designated for sanctions under Executive Order 14404 earlier this month, is the central node in a sprawling Cuban intelligence and influence operation, claiming to span more than 2,000 organizations across more than 150 countries. The organization has a long and intimate relationship with Cuban intelligence agents; in fact, ICAP’s current president, Fernando González Llort, is a convicted Cuban spy who served 15 years in U.S. prison for his role in the infamous Wasp Network — a massive illegal Cuban spy ring uncovered in Florida in the late 1990s. Working in close coordination with the Cuban communist regime, ICAP maintains an outsized footprint across the United States, trafficking in vile anti-American propaganda, cultivating pro-Havana regime activists and politicians, and lobbying federal, state and local politicians on behalf of the Cuban dictatorship. The organization facilitates close working relationships between Havana and radical U.S. groups, using America’s far left milieu as a vehicle to export Cuba’s Communist revolution to the United States. Under the Trump Administration, America will never become home for Cuban Communist regime thugs who peddle propaganda, run foreign influence operations, or seek to wage revolution against American civilization. As a reminder, pursuant to Executive Order 14404, all ICAP property and interests in property are blocked and any transactions with ICAP are prohibited absent an express authorization by the Departments of Treasury or State. And any foreign aliens involved in ICAP’s anti-American subversion operations should expect to soon find themselves on an ICE deportation flight.

United States and Tanzania Advance Global Fight Against Infectious Diseases Through Bilateral Health Memorandum of Understanding 07/01/2026 You are subscribed to Press Releases. Here is new content for this topic:   United States and Tanzania Advance Global Fight Against Infectious Diseases Through Bilateral Health Memorandum of Understanding 07/01/2026 12:26 PM EDT Thomas "Tommy" Pigott, Spokesperson United States and Tanzania Advance Global Fight Against Infectious Diseases Through Bilateral Health Memorandum of Understanding Press Statement July 1, 2026 Today, the United States and Tanzania signed a five-year bilateral global health Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) through the Trump Administration’s America First Global Health Strategy to save lives, advance shared global health goals, and bolster Tanzanian self-sufficiency to address infectious diseases and emerging health threats. Building on decades of gains made through U.S. global health assistance to Tanzania, the United States and Tanzania will act as co-investors under this MOU, jointly building a durable network of hospitals, laboratories, and health care workers able to care for Tanzanians now and independently address public health threats of the future.  The United States will direct assistance to support Tanzania’s health priorities and help Tanzania tap into American expertise in pharmaceuticals, health innovation, and technology.  Joint activities under this MOU aim to facilitate a sustainable transition from the previous donor-recipient model to a new partnership that will help Tanzania finance, manage, and sustain its health system over the long run, strengthening Tanzania’s ability to detect and respond to infectious disease outbreaks. The five-year MOU also intends to sustain national control of HIV, malaria, polio, and tuberculosis, and meet the needs of Tanzania’s growing population through supporting maternal and child health. The United States, working with Congress, intends to provide more than $1.3 billion over five years under this MOU, and the United Republic of Tanzania intends to increase its domestic expenditures by $1.8 billion in national funds over the same time period.  This $3.1 billion memorandum of understanding reflects the vision of the America First Global Health Strategy, which recognizes that the strongest and most sustainable partnerships are those that help countries build the capacity to lead, finance, and sustain their own health systems. It reflects a shift from traditional donor-recipient relationships toward true partnership; from aid to trade; from dependence to self-reliance; and from short-term support to long-term sustainability. America First Global Health Strategy Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) signed so far represent more than $24 billion in new health funding, including more than $14.3 billion in U.S. assistance alongside more than $9.6 billion in co-investment from recipient countries, building on decades of progress fighting HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, and other infectious diseases around the world. As of July 1, the State Department has signed 34 bilateral global health MOUs with Angola, Bolivia, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Eswatini, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Guinea, Honduras, Kenya, Lesotho, Liberia, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Panama, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Rwanda, Senegal, Sierra Leone, South Sudan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, and Uganda. Terrorist Designation of Chone Killers 07/01/2026 You are subscribed to Secretary's Remarks. Here is new content for this topic:   Terrorist Designation of Chone Killers 07/01/2026 02:38 PM EDT Marco Rubio, Secretary of State Terrorist Designation of Chone Killers Press Statement July 1, 2026 Today, the U.S. Department of State is designating Chone Killers as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) and a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT). Chone Killers is an Ecuadorian gang that has committed numerous attacks targeting civilians, law enforcement officers, and government officials, including high-profile assassinations of public officials. Chone Killers originated as a faction of Los Choneros – a designated FTO and SDGT – before splintering into a separate group in 2020. The Trump Administration, in partnership with Ecuador and President Daniel Noboa, will continue to protect our hemisphere by keeping illicit drugs off our streets and disrupting the revenue streams funding violent narcoterrorists.
