Secretary of State Marco Rubio will take the vacant position in the interim
US President Donald Trump has confirmed that Mike Waltz will leave his position as national security adviser. The president said on Thursday that he would nominate Waltz as the next American envoy to the UN, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio will take over his duties "in the interim."
"I am pleased to announce that I will be nominating Mike Waltz to be the next United States Ambassador to the United Nations," Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Thursday as he praised Waltz's record as an army veteran, a member of Congress, and national security adviser.
The president did not elaborate on whether Waltz had already left his post or would do so in the near future. Instead, he said that Rubio would temporarily fill the position "while continuing his strong leadership at the State Department." He did not name any potential picks to replace Waltz on a permanent basis.
