(WASHINGTON) President Joe Biden on Thursday planned to deliver his first major foreign policy speech during a visit to the State Department where he signaled he would place diplomacy at the center of U.S. foreign policy. America is back, Biden told State Department staff who had assembled in person and virtually to hear him speak ahead of his address. Diplomacy is back. You are the center of all that I intend to do. You are the heart of it.
He also signed a presidential memorandum on Thursday that his national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, said would focus on protecting the rights of LGBTQ individuals worldwide. Sullivan told reporters that Biden would speak more about the move during his afternoon remarks.

(WASHINGTON) President Joe Biden will deliver his first major foreign policy speech in office Thursday during a visit to the State Department, where he is expected to talk about “reclaiming America’s role in the world” and restoring values to the center of U.S. foreign policy, according to White House press secretary Jen Psaki.
Biden’s speech, alongside Secretary of State Antony Blinken, will outline his foreign policy vision and how he will put diplomacy at the center of it, a senior administration official told ABC News a point driven home by the fact that the State Department will be the first federal agency he visits as president. He is also expected to take a series of executive actions while there, the official said.
