The U.S. Senate on Monday confirmed Marco Rubio as the new Secretary of State in the administration of President Donald Trump.
The confirmation came after a vote held immediately following Trump’s inauguration, with Rubio receiving unanimous support in Congress, earning 99 votes in favor and no opposition.
In a recent session of the U.S. Congress, Rubio praised Morocco, highlighting its growing economic potential in Africa, particularly after the signing of the Abraham Accords.
Rubio’s appointment is seen as a significant blow to Algeria, Iran, and China. He had previously criticized Algeria, calling for sanctions over its purchase of Russian weapons.
