Hindustan Times Pune
|January 22, 2025
The US Senate late on Monday (Tuesday morning IST) unanimously approved Marco Rubio as America's new Secretary of State, making the senator from Florida the first cabinet-rank official in the Donald Trump administration to be confirmed.
WASHINGTON:
Rubio's confirmation came just as Trump issued an "America First" policy directive for the Secretary of State as a part of his initial flurry of executive orders.
Rubio's confirmation sets him up to participate in the Trump administration's first foreign policy engagement - a meeting of Quad foreign ministers at the State Department on Tuesday afternoon eastern time. External affairs minister S Jaishankar, who represented India at Trump's inauguration and had a front-row seat, was set to meet Rubio at an evening reception, and is participating in the Quad meeting.
