Brian Hook, a prominent figure in U.S. foreign policy and a key official during the Trump administration, is set to lead the transition team at the State Department for President-elect Donald Trump. Hook previously served as the U.S. Special Representative for Iran and was instrumental in the development of the Abraham Accords. His tenure at the State Department included roles as Director of Policy Planning and a focus on Iran policy, where he was the architect of the maximum pressure campaign against Tehran. Due to threats from the Islamic Republic of Iran, Hook has been under a U.S. government-provided security detail for several years. His experience in foreign policy is expected to play a significant role in shaping the upcoming administration's approach to international relations.
