Mario Díaz-Balart, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Florida's 26th District, has been active on social media discussing significant political and international issues. Díaz-Balart, who has been in office since 2003 and previously served in the Florida House of Representatives and Senate, has recently shared his views on matters involving national security and international relations.

On February 5, 2025, Díaz-Balart commented on the trip by Secretary Rubio to Central America and the Caribbean. He described it as "a resounding success in a key region for U.S. national security," emphasizing cooperation with these countries in combating illegal immigration, drug trafficking, and "the growing influence of Communist China."

Two days later, on February 7, 2025, he expressed approval of Secretary Rubio's actions by stating simply: "Excelente respuesta del @SecRubio." This brief commendation is available here.

In another post from February 7, 2025, Díaz-Balart praised former President Trump for defending America and its allies against what he perceives as a biased International Criminal Court (ICC). He asserted that "the ICC has lost all credibility" by unfairly targeting Israel for defending itself against attacks from Iran and terrorist groups. His full statement is accessible here.
