The safety and security they provide to our personnel are the first priority, but they must also reflect our national values of openness and ingenuity. In addition, embassies and consulates must exemplify the best of American architecture, environmental stewardship, and innovation. Championing excellent design and efficient technologies benefits both the American taxpayer and those overseas we seek to serve. Secretary of State John F Kerry, Thank You
