The U.S. Department of State is the primary executive department of the federal government responsible for foreign policy and international relations. Established on July 27, 1789, as the Department of Foreign Affairs and renamed to Department of State in September 1789, it was the first federal agency created under the U.S. Constitution. Led by the Secretary of State (a Cabinet-level position), the department advises the President on international relations, administers diplomatic missions, negotiates treaties and agreements, protects American citizens abroad, and represents the U.S. at the United Nations. In 2026, the State Department became involved in the Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE) disclosure initiative, contributing diplomatic cables from overseas missions documenting unidentified anomalous phenomena reports from 1985–2025.
