Brian Hook, Former Iran Envoy, to Lead State Department Transition Team for Trump
Nov 6, 2024, 09:42 PM
Brian Hook, the former US Iran envoy, is set to lead the State Department's transition team for president-elect Donald Trump, according to CNN citing three sources. Hook, who served as envoy on Iran during the Trump administration and worked on the Abraham Accords, spent a year at the State Department under George W. Bush and returned under Trump from 2017 to 2020. He first served as Director of Policy Planning and then as US Special Representative for Iran. Hook is known for his hawkish stance and anti-isolationist views, which may signal continuity in US foreign policy under Trump. This appointment might be a major disappointment for those hoping for a change in US foreign policy, as Hook also served under Pompeo.
