President-elect Donald Trump is outlining his White House team, banking on figures who have demonstrated loyalty and strong positions. Among the most notable appointments is that of Senator Marco Rubio as the next Secretary of State. This choice, reported by sources at the New York Times, highlights a return to a decisive and assertive foreign policy.
Marco Rubio, a Florida senator since 2010, is known for his tough stances on countries like China and Iran. Recently, he expressed the need to find “an end” to the war in Ukraine. Although he was not initially selected as vice president, he continued to support Trump through various events and rallies.
His loyalty to the president-elect could prove crucial at a time when international relations need firm leadership.
In addition to Rubio, Trump plans to nominate Congressman Mike Waltz as national security adviser. According to CNN, Waltz is a staunch Trump supporter and spent a lot of money defending him during the campaign. It was reported that Waltz was recently spotted at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s headquarters. Waltz brings a critical view of NATO and China, making him a key figure in navigating current geopolitical crises, from the war in Ukraine to tensions in the Middle East. Finally, Trump has chosen South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem to lead the Department of Homeland Security. With this appointment, the president-elect secures another trusted ally within the government. However, the relationship between the two has undergone a change after Noem revealed in her book that she had to sacrifice her hunting dog for training reasons.
With these strategic choices, Trump seems to want to consolidate his influence within the administration. The next moves will be crucial not only for the internal political orientation of the United States but also for international relations. The team that is taking shape could face significant challenges on a global scale, with a careful eye on ongoing conflicts and emerging geopolitical dynamics.
