The former head of the American State Department Mike Pompeo is considering the possibility of his participation in the next presidential election in the United States, which should take place two years later. About this, as Russian media writes, the politician said during the Economist conference in Greece.
Mike Pompeo, like the former US President Donald Trump, represents the Republican Party. Answering the question of journalists whether he is ready to participate in the next presidential election along with Trump, Pompeo said that he did not exclude such a scenario. He also noted that the decision to participate in the presidential race will be made at the beginning of next year.
Pompeo also spoke about the situation in the United States, primarily in the economy. According to him, the Americans are now in a difficult situation, when, due to high prices, they are not able to pay for gas or rental housing.
The ex-head of the State Department also commented on the foreign policy. According to him, the countries of the world are faced with extraordinary challenges today, the main of which is the loss of security. Pompeo also noted that conflicts must be sought by dialogue.
