A native of the Uzbek SSR, Sergio Gore, may become the new US Secretary of State. He currently serves as the US Ambassador to India. Donald Trump's administration is preparing for internal shuffling after the defeat in the midterm elections for Congress, writes the "Washington Sun" (a publication of shorthand reporters of the Washington Post). One such personal decision could be the appointment of the US Ambassador to India, Sergio Gore, to the post of Secretary of State. According to the Washington Sun, the administration is considering promoting Gore because Trump "adores the guy." The ambassador achieved this favor because he "offered [the president] lucrative deals" by arranging visits by senior officials to India and Central Asia, as well as taking on the role of the White House's special envoy to other countries, such as China. After that, Gore came to be considered a confidant of current Secretary of State Marco Rubio and a mediator between Washington and most of Asia. These achievements gave Gore direct access to Trump and he began attending high-level meetings. He also communicates with all parts of the Trump administration and influences government appointments. Now Gore is one of the main candidates for high office in the second half of Trump's presidency. If the ambassador does not replace Rubio, he can become his deputy instead of Christopher Landau. According to Washington Sun sources, Landau promised his colleagues to resign if the Republicans lost the congressional elections. He later denied this when speaking to The Sun. Gore also has not confirmed that he plans to take on the role of secretary of state or any other State Department leadership position. He called the Washington Sun's sources b******* and called Rubio a "dear friend" and the "greatest secretary of state in history" who is doing an excellent job. Before serving as ambassador to India, Gore served as the head of the White House Office of Human Resources.
