Trump Nominates Christopher Landau as Deputy Secretary of State, Rubio for Secretary of State
Dec 9, 2024, 12:49 AM
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Christopher Landau, former U.S. ambassador to Mexico, as Deputy Secretary of State. This nomination comes alongside the selection of Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, indicating a potential shift in U.S. foreign policy towards an 'America First' approach. Landau's appointment is expected to bring significant Latin American experience to the State Department, which could influence U.S. relations with countries like Venezuela and Cuba. Rubio's potential role has already sparked discussions on how it might increase pressure on Cuba and possibly generate tensions with Venezuela and other Latin American nations.
