Rubio to pitch foreign policy credentials to Senate as he vies to become America's top diplomat
Fox News
Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio is bracing himself for the hot seat as his colleagues in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee prepare to question him during a confirmation hearing for Secretary of State.
Caitlin McFall is a Reporter at Fox News Digital covering Politics, U.S. and World news.
In an excerpt of Rubio's remarks obtained by Fox News Digital ahead of his address to the Senate body, he highlights the security threats that have emerged following the end of the Cold War and the belief that democracy could succeed across the globe and international free trade was the way of the future.
"While America far too often continued to prioritize the ‘global order’ above our core national interests, other nations continued to act the way countries always have and always will, in what they perceive to be in their best interest," the remarks read. "And instead of folding into the post-Cold War global order, they have manipulated it to serve their interest at the expense of ours."
