WATCH: Hillary Clinton's portrait unveiling at the Department of State in Washington D.C.
In a momentous event at the State Department, the official portrait of the 67th Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton, was unveiled, accompanied by heartfelt remarks from current Secretary of State Antony Blinken. The occasion celebrated not only a historic figure in American politics but also the enduring impact of her diplomatic legacy.
Secretary Blinken set the stage for the unveiling with eloquent words that reflected on the rich history of the State Department. He spoke of the reverence he felt while walking along the seventh-floor corridor, lined with portraits of predecessors, noting their stern expressions and diverse facial hair, with a shared characteristic of being predominantly white men. With pride, he introduced a new addition to this esteemed lineage, Secretary Hillary Clinton.
Blinken's praise for Clinton's transformative contributions to American diplomacy was evident. He lauded her tireless efforts on behalf of women, girls, and the LGBTQ+ community during her tenure. He also commended her for her steadfast stance against Russian President Vladimir Putin, emphasizing her role in "calling out" Putin for his true nature from the very beginning.
Highlighting Clinton's visionary approach to diplomacy, Blinken acknowledged her belief that diplomacy needed to broaden its horizons to be more effective on the world stage. Her tenure as Secretary of State under the Obama administration marked a significant period of American diplomacy evolution.
Hillary Clinton's remarkable journey in American politics is nothing short of historic. She served as the First Lady during her husband, President Bill Clinton's, time in office. Furthermore, she made history by becoming the first woman elected as a U.S. senator from New York and the first First Lady to win a federal office.
In 2016, Clinton ran for the presidency, securing the Democratic nomination and becoming the first woman from a major party to do so. Blinken acknowledged her groundbreaking achievement, stating, "Secretary Clinton, your leg of the race helped revitalize the power and the purpose of American diplomacy. It reminded the world of who America is and what we stand for, and helped us achieve our mission."
