Investing.com -- Secretary of State Marco Rubio has named Brendan Hanrahan, a former member of his Senate staff with private sector experience, as the U.S. State Department’s top official for Europe. The appointment was revealed in an internal email sent on Friday, according to a Reuters report on Friday.
Louis Bono, a senior foreign service officer who was appointed as senior bureau official in the department’s Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs when Trump assumed office in January, informed staff on Friday that Hanrahan would be his successor.
In his email, Bono stated, "Brendan brings valuable experience from the private sector and the Senate, where he served on the secretary’s staff, making him well poised to lead the bureau through the reorganization and to successfully advance the Secretary’s agenda throughout Europe and beyond."
