This step could have far -reaching consequences for American foreign policy, because Waltz is known for its aggressive attitude towards China and has asked that the United States have to rethink its support for Ukraine in the face of Russian attack.

Media reports, including from “Wall Street Journal” and CNN, confirm that Trump Waltz offered the prestigious post in the White House.

Waltz 'clear views

Mike Waltz, who acts as a member of the US representative house from Florida, has been a loyal supporter of Trump for years.
