On the day of May Day, the US Secretary of State, added, following a decision by the US president, another property of the three he already owned. The head of US diplomacy, who is also the head of the USA for international assistance (USAID) and head of the National Archives Administration, is now a national security adviser.
Rubio succeeds Mike Wells in this portfolio, who: Wells admitted that he had included in a confidential conversation on the Signal platform, with the US Operation of Houthi in Yemen, journalist Jeffrey Goldberg.
The phenomenon of gathering so many powers in a person, such as Rubio, has happened in American politics since Henry Kissinger, who, during 1973-1975, in the middle of the Vietnam War, had also served as Minister of Foreign Affairs and National Security Advisor. The fact that Rubio holds a record number of office is indicative of President Trump’s confidence in his face and the close relationship he has developed with Susi Wale, a strategy adviser to the President and a White House.
The question of conflict between the four services whose Rubio is now raised is reasonably raised. The New York Times, who calls him “Secretary of Everything”, wonder whether the State Department chief will really have the time to pursue US foreign policy. How can Rubio travel around the world by serving American diplomacy at such a critical time, and will also require his presence in the US to oversee the other three services of which he is led?
The questions
The opposite is that Rubio is not going to stay in the position of National Security Advisor for a long time. Analysts estimate that businessman Steven Whitkov, Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine and the Middle East, is being promoted to this office.
The nights have also asked the US Foreign Ministry the question of who the salary – or salaries – of Rubio, now that it is taking on so many responsibilities. The State Department did not answer the newspaper’s question.
The fact remains that Mark Rubio, whom Trump, during the 2016 election campaign, when both claimed the anointing of the Republican president, called “Little Mark”, embodies the ultimate success story of a son of a son. At the age of 53, Rubio, a former Florida senator, whose parents fled Fidel Castro’s Communist Cuban to work in the US as a bartender and housekeeper in homes respectively, rose to the highest -scale.
