<p>&#8220;As Secretary of State, I will work every day to carry out his foreign policy agenda,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Under the leadership of President Trump we will deliver peace through strength and always put the interests of Americans and America above all else.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I look forward to earning the support of my colleagues in the U.S. Senate so the President has his national security and foreign policy team in place when he takes office on January 20,&#8221; he added.</p>

<p>Born in Miami, Florida in 1971, Rubio learned about the horrors of communism from his parents, who were both Cuban immigrants.</p>
<p>Now serving in his third term as a U.S. Senator, Rubio has developed a reputation for having strong foreign policy views, including hardline views on China, Venezuela, and Iran.</p>
