Secretary of State Marco Rubio will hold the inaugural meeting of the Economic Diplomacy Action Group on Wednesday, two years after it was established during the Biden administration.
The committee, composed of federal agency leaders, aims to shape U.S. economic foreign policy. Its focus includes advancing U.S. leadership in areas such as artificial intelligence, according to State Department officials.
The group is tasked with aligning economic strategies to support broader U.S. foreign policy priorities, officials said. Rubio’s leadership underscores the administration’s emphasis on integrating economic diplomacy into foreign relations.
The meeting marks a key step in formalizing the group’s role in shaping U.S. economic engagement worldwide, officials added.
