"Donald Trump has selected US senator Marco Rubio to be his secretary of state, the New York Times reports, putting the Florida-born politician on track to be the first Latino to serve as America's top diplomat."
"Rubio, 53, has said in recent interviews that Ukraine needs to seek a negotiated settlement with Russia rather than focus on regaining all territory that Russia has taken in the last decade. He was also one of 15 Republican senators to vote against a $US95 billion military aid package for Ukraine, passed in April."
