The United States State Department joined Instagram on Monday.


The account's first post was an Instagram video of Secretary of State John Kerry.



In a press release, the State Department said the account will be "[s]howcasing behind-the-scenes images of the Department’s domestic and overseas work, including the Secretary’s travels."


The State Department already has accounts on Facebook, Flickr, Google+, Tumblr and Twitter.


In addition to the video of John Kerry, the Instagram account included two photos at the time of writing — both taken at the United Nations' headquarters in New York City, where the annual UN General Assembly will be held this week.
