POLITICAL VIEWS OF MARCO RUBIO, THE EXPECTED NEW U.S. SECRETARY OF STATE
Öz
Donald Trump, who won the 2024 United States (U.S.) presidential elections comfortably and will be sworn into office in January 2025 as the 47th U.S. President, has chosen Florida Senator Marco Rubio as his Secretary of State. Rubio, who had previously been a rival to Trump for the Republican Party presidential nomination, has nevertheless become a name that President Trump has shown his trust in by appointing him to the most critical position, the Department of State, along with the Department of Defense. Rubio will begin his new position in 2025 after receiving Senate approval. Since the Republican Party has a majority in both houses of the U.S. Congress, including the Senate, there are no obstacles to Rubio’s appointment. In this context, Rubio will also go down in history as the highest-ranking Hispanic politician in American history. This study will summarize Marco Rubio’s life and his views on critical issues, particularly those concerning international politics and Türkiye.
