    Ukraine’s foreign minister greets future US secretary of state and looks forward to cooperation

    Published on

    Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha has welcomed the nomination of Senator Marco Rubio as the next US secretary of state.

    Details: Sybiha noted that Rubio has been nominated as the 72nd US secretary of state.

    Quote: "I look forward to working together, deepening the mutually beneficial Ukraine-US strategic partnership, and advancing peace through strength in Ukraine and around the world."

    The new secretary of state must be confirmed by Congress next year, but with the Republicans holding a majority in the US Senate, the confirmation is not expected to face hurdles.

    Background:

    • Historically, Marco Rubio has emphasised the importance of supporting Ukraine and even publicly criticised party colleagues for questioning the need to assist Ukraine.
    • However, his stance has recently become more cautious; in April, he voted against the US$61 billion aid package for Kyiv. He has also recently changed his rhetoric on how to end the war.
