As the 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump has set himself the goal of ending the war in Ukraine as quickly as possible – he repeatedly spoke of 24 hours. Republican Rep. Mike Waltz should help him as national security adviser. The 50-year-old former officer of America’s elite Green Berets unit is a “nationally recognized national security leader,” Trump said, justifying his choice.
The Florida state representative is an “expert on threats from China, Russia, Iran and global terrorism,” Trump said on his short-messaging platform Truth Social (see below). He is a strong supporter of “my ‘America First’ foreign policy agenda” and “our pursuit of peace through strength.”
Already worked as an advisor in the White House
In his career to date, Waltz has worked as an advisor to the White House and the Pentagon. According to the former elite soldier, the US is engaged in an “existential” battle with the Chinese Communist Party. He also writes extensively about this in a recently published book, ‘Hard Truths’. During a speech last month, he expressed concern about a “1930s-style military build-up in Nazi Germany” taking place in China.
US ambassador to Israel nominated
Meanwhile, former governor of the US state of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee, will become the new US ambassador to Israel. The 69-year-old will “work tirelessly to bring peace to the Middle East,” Trump said. “He loves Israel and the Israeli people, and the Israeli people love him back,” continued the statement from the Republican former president, who won re-election last week and will be sworn in for a second term on January 20.
