President-elect Donald Trump is expected to nominate Senator Marco Rubio of Florida as Secretary of State, according to recent reports.

Senator Rubio, 53, has been a staunch proponent of a strong U.S. foreign policy, particularly about global adversaries such as China, Iran, and Cuba. His stance on Ukraine, advocating for a negotiated settlement with Russia rather than the complete restoration of territories, reflects his broader approach to international diplomacy. Rubio, a vocal critic of unchecked military aid, was also one of 15 Republican senators who opposed a $95 billion military aid package for Ukraine in April, emphasizing his preference for strategic diplomacy over expansive military intervention.
