What are new US Secretary of State Rubio’s flamboyant statements on foreign policy issues?
The US Senate has voted 99-0 to confirm Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, President Donald Trump's first cabinet pick to be confirmed by the upper chamber.
Rubio earlier made an array of statements during his hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which pertained to the conflict in Ukraine, China, the Gaza war, and Greenland.
👉 On Ukraine conflict:
▫️ The release of the West’s anti-Russian sanctions could play an important role in possible talks on ending the Ukraine conflict;
▫️ It’s “unrealistic to believe” that Ukraine can push Russian forces back to where they were before the start of Moscow’s special military operation;
▫️ Both Russia and Ukraine should make “some concessions” in order to clinch a potential peace deal;
▫️ The US’ “official policy” on the Ukraine conflict is that Washington wants to see it end.
👉 On Gaza war:
▫️ The US should work hard to take advantage of the opportunity regarding the Gaza ceasefire deal and the release of hostages.
👉 On China:
▫️ China is “an extraordinary challenge” to the US, something that will most likely define the 21st century.
👉 On Greenland:
▫️ Greenland will remain on the US’s radar amid America’s push for more clout in the Arctic.
