Trump escolhe Mike Waltz como conselheiro de segurança nacional, diz Reuters
O presidente eleito Donald Trump escolheu o deputado republicano pela Flórida, Mike Waltz, para ser seu mentor de segurança vernáculo, segundo informações divulgadas pela Reuters na última segunda-feira, 11.
O função, que não requer confirmação do Senado porquê outros do gabinete, é responsável por informar o presidente sobre as principais questões de segurança vernáculo e coordenar as diferentes agências de lucidez.
Waltz, um Boné Verdejante emérito do Tropa, tem sido um dos principais críticos do papel da China no mundo. O republicano, que também serviu na Guarda Pátrio porquê coronel, já expressou a premência dos EUA estarem prontos para um “potencial conflito” na região do Indo-Pacífico.
Em 2021, Waltz criticou publicamente a saída desastrosa do governo Biden do Afeganistão e elogiou as visões de política externa de Trump.
“Francamente, nosso establishment de segurança vernáculo e certamente muitas pessoas estão presas em velhos hábitos ruins no Pentágono e precisam dessa interrupção”, disse Waltz durante um evento no início deste ano.
Curso
Mike Waltz foi diretor de política de resguardo dos secretários de resguardo Donald Rumsfeld e Robert Gates (dos governos de George W. Bush) e foi eleito para o Congresso em 2018 para a vaga Ron DeSantis, que acabaria sendo eleito governador da Flórida.
Ele também é o presidente do subcomitê de Serviços Armados da Câmara que supervisiona a logística militar e também no comitê seleto de lucidez.
Em um livro publicado no início deste ano, Waltz apresentou uma estratégia de cinco partes para evitar a guerra com a China, incluindo armar Taiwan mais rápido, tranquilizar aliados no Pacífico e modernizar aviões e navios.
Sobre a Ucrânia, Waltz disse que suas opiniões evoluíram. Após a invasão da Ucrânia pela Rússia em 2022, ele pediu que o governo Biden fornecesse mais armas a Kiev para ajudá-los a repelir as forças russas. Mas durante um evento no mês pretérito, Waltz disse que tinha que possuir uma reavaliação dos objetivos dos Estados Unidos na Ucrânia, segundo a Reuters.
Waltz elogiou Trump por pressionar os aliados da OTAN a gastar mais em resguardo, mas, ao contrário do presidente eleito, não sugeriu que os Estados Unidos saíssem da coligação.
Waltz demonstrou sua lealdade a Trump no início deste ano quando apareceu na audiência do tribunal de Trump em Manhattan, em 16 de maio, em Manhattan – foi um dos poucos legisladores a fazê-lo.
