Kamala Harris
The priorities of US Vice President Kamala Harris in foreign policy are revealed: they will be cybersecurity and international cooperation in the field of healthcare. The CBS television company writes about this, citing sources in the White House.
It is noted that the politician intends to actively assist US President Joe Biden with regard to the development of a foreign policy course. Sources believe Harris will put a lot of emphasis on cybersecurity and healthcare, as she has already shown interest in these areas as Senator from California.
“It is impossible to solve all the issues that interest you without the participation of partners, and this is the leitmotif of the new administration. Global health, cybersecurity, [relations with] China, climate, regional issues: none of this can be resolved without strong partners. I think the vice president thinks about it that way, and therefore considers it important to participate in [solving these issues], ”the source said.
CBS notes that in the first six months after the inauguration, neither Biden nor Harris are planning to go on foreign trips.
On February 16, it became known that Harris was making phone calls with world leaders instead of the president. For example, she spoke with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and French President Emmanuel Macron.
