In a decisive move, US President-elect Donald Trump has selected Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State and Representative Mike Waltz as National Security Advisor, reinforcing America's diplomatic and security ties with key international allies, particularly India.
Rubio, known for his consistent support of US-India relations, will enter this pivotal diplomatic role with bipartisan consensus as Rubio's established relationship with India promises continuity in US foreign relations. Conversely, Waltz, the combat-proven Green Beret, continues to champion Trump's rigorous national security agenda, adding another layer of strategic depth.
The Republican victory in the House of Representatives has given Trump control over both chambers of Congress, putting him in a stronger position to enact his policies. Furthermore, with other key appointments like Lee Zeldin for the Environmental Protection Agency and Elise Stefanik as Ambassador to the United Nations, Trump's cabinet reshuffle is set to drive forward the 'America First' vision.
