Florida Senator Marco Rubio has been appointed the new US Secretary of State by Donald Trump. Rubio promised to ensure “peace through strength” and put the interests of Americans above all else.

The Florida senator, formerly a representative of the Foreign Relations and Intelligence Committees in the Upper House, commented on his appointment as US Secretary of State. Marco Rubio thanked Trump in particular and announced his agenda.

Writes to UNN with a link to Rubio's page on the X network.

Leading the U.S. Department of State is a tremendous responsibility, and I am honored that President Trump has placed his trust in me. Under President Trump's leadership, we will pursue peace through strength and always put the interests of Americans and America first

Rubio also stressed that as Secretary of State, he would work every day to implement the foreign policy agenda.

I look forward to supporting my colleagues in the U.S. Senate to ensure that the President has his national security and foreign policy team in place when he takes office on January 20

- added the newly appointed US Secretary of State.

Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971. He is considered a "hawk" in foreign policy, a supporter of a hard line in international politics.

Fun fact: Rubio gained national fame when he took part in the 2016 Republican presidential primaries, where he faced off against Trump.

After dropping out of the 2016 Republican presidential nomination race, he expressed his loyalty to Donald Trump.
