Senate Confirms Antony Blinken as Biden's Secretary of State

What Happened:

• On Tuesday, the Senate voted to confirm Antony Blinken as Biden's Secretary of State.

• A long-time aide to Biden, Blinken will seek to rekindle diplomatic relationships and steer away from the "America First" policy implemented by former President Trump.

• Blinken said he is "committed to advancing our security and prosperity by building a diplomatic corps that fully represents America in all its talent and diversity."

• Of particular interest will be how he handles diplomatic relations with Iran and China.
