Ex-Iran Envoy and Neoconservative Brian Hook to Head State Dept Transition for Trump
Nov 7, 2024, 12:10 PM
Brian Hook, a known neoconservative and former US Special Representative for Iran during President Trump's first term, is expected to lead the State Department's transition team for President-elect Donald Trump, according to CNN reports citing multiple sources. Hook previously served under both President George W. Bush and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, working as Director of Policy Planning and playing a key role in the Abraham Accords. As the architect of the 'maximum pressure' sanctions campaign against Iran, Hook's appointment may signal a continuation of a hardline U.S. foreign policy toward Iran in the upcoming administration.
