The US Senate Foreign Relations Commission will hold the process of confirming Senator Marco Rubio's post of State Secretary on Wednesday. Rubio has promised to implement the “American vision of Pre” of President-elect Donald Trump, putting American interests above all else.
He is expected to stress that foreign policy focusing on national interests is not isolation, but a strategy to confront global threats, giving a strong response to threats by actors like China.
If confirmed, Rubio will become the first Secretary of State from Latin America, a historic event for the United States. During his career, Rubio has supported a strong foreign policy and has expressed criticism of China of how he benefited from global order. He has warned of the military and economic threats they pose to the US.
Rubio is expected to receive support from both parties, even though some Democrats hope he will reject the isolationist approach of some Trump allies, taking a more international stance. If confirmed, Rubio will lead US foreign policy, though his role will remain closely linked to President Trump, who has a major impact on the global scene. /euronews
