US Deputy National Security Advisor Tony Blinken speaks on Syria at the White House in Washington. WILMINGTON, Delaware: US President-elect Joe Biden on Monday named the key members of his foreign policy team, tappingto head the State Department and take the lead in rebuilding Washington's relationships in Europe and the rest of the world.
Biden chose lawyer Alejandro Mayorkas to head the Department of Homeland Security, entrusting the Cuban immigrant to help reverse Trump's hard-line immigration policies. Along with Sullivan, he has helped Biden formulate a strategy that will include quick outreach to allies who have often been antagonized by Trump, and to demonstrate a willingness to work together on big global problems like the coronavirus pandemic and its economic fallout.
Trump's hopes hung by a thread on Monday as Michigan and Pennsylvania looked to push ahead with certifying that Biden was the winner of both states. A Republican on the board, which is evenly split between the parties, has suggested he favors delaying certification because of technical irregularities that may have affected a few hundred votes in one county. The Trump campaign has suggested without evidence the irregularities point to widespread fraud.
