US President Donald Trump's foreign policy will not change despite the Republican Party's defeat in the midterm elections, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters following a meeting of foreign ministers from the Group of Seven (G7) countries in Paris, Associated Press reports.
He stated that Washington would continue its efforts to end the wars involving Iran and Russia-Ukraine through diplomatic means.
According to Rubio, the president, rather than Congress, has the primary say in determining foreign policy.
"Congress has a role in our foreign policy, particularly in its funding and oversight functions. However, the number one factor in determining foreign policy has always been the president, and it will remain so," he said.
The Secretary of State noted that Trump intends to end the war with Iran, as well as the war between Russia and Ukraine. Nevertheless, the United States will adhere to the "America First" principle on the international stage.
