President-elect Donald Trump has officially nominated Florida Republican Rep. Mike Waltz as his National Security Adviser. Waltz, a former Green Beret with 27 years of service in the Army Special Forces, has been recognized for his expertise in national security and foreign policy. Trump praised Waltz for his support of the 'America First' agenda and his experience in dealing with threats from China, Russia, Iran, and global terrorism.
In addition to Waltz, Trump is expected to nominate Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State. Rubio, a long-time Trump ally, has a hawkish stance on foreign policy, particularly regarding China and Iran. He has been vocal about the need for a resolution to the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Waltz's nomination comes at a time when the Trump administration will face significant geopolitical challenges, including conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East. His anti-NATO and anti-China positions may influence the administration's approach to these issues.
