📖 Narrative

"“Having served in the region both in combat as an Army officer and for two years as a diplomatic liaison in the Kingdom, I understand the strategic importance of the partnership between the United States and Saudi Arabia and the profound responsibility of this position.” The nomination comes as Saudi Arabia, a U.S. ally, temporarily shut down a key oil pipeline used to bypass the Strait of Hormuz after Iranian-backed Houthi rebels launched a series of attacks the day prior."
