鲁比奥宣誓就任第72任国务卿：参议院99比0一致确认、成本届内阁第一人
2025年1月21日，Marco Rubio 在华盛顿特区艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼宣誓就任美国第72任国务卿，副总统万斯为其主持宣誓。前一天，参议院以99票对0票一致通过其提名，鲁比奥成为特朗普第二任期首位获参议院确认的内阁成员。
鲁比奥1971年生于佛罗里达州迈阿密，2011年起任佛罗里达州联邦参议员，长期任职于参议院外交关系委员会与情报委员会。2024年11月，特朗普提名他出任国务卿。就职仪式上，万斯说鲁比奥将成为美国的首席外交官；这次主持宣誓也是万斯就任副总统后首次为联邦官员监誓。
鲁比奥在就职讲话中说，特朗普在外交上的核心承诺是国务院的优先事项将是美国本身、推进美国的国家利益。他说，总统给出的授权很明确：「我们所做的一切，都必须用三个问题来回答：这是否让我们更强大？是否让我们更安全？是否让我们更繁荣？三者皆不沾边的事，我们就不做。」他还说，美国对外政策的首要目标之一是促进和平——以实力求和平，同时不放弃美国的价值观。
就职当天，鲁比奥随即在国务院展开工作，会见日本、澳大利亚与印度三国外长并出席四方安全对话（Quad）外长联合声明等活动。国务院介绍说，鲁比奥的首要任务是打造一个把「美国优先」放在首位的国务院。

Rubio Sworn In as 72nd Secretary of State After Historic 99-0 Senate Confirmation, First Cabinet Member Confirmed
On January 21, 2025, Marco Rubio was sworn in as the 72nd Secretary of State of the United States at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building in Washington, D.C., with Vice President JD Vance administering the oath. A day earlier, the Senate had confirmed his nomination by a unanimous vote of 99 to 0, making Rubio the first cabinet member confirmed in President Donald Trump's second administration.
Rubio was born in Miami, Florida, in 1971 and served as a U.S. Senator from Florida from 2011 until 2025, including long service on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the Intelligence Committee. Trump nominated him for Secretary of State in November 2024. At the ceremony, Vance said Rubio would be the chief diplomat of the United States; it was also the first time Vance, as Vice President, had sworn in a federal official.
In his remarks, Rubio said President Trump's primary promise on foreign policy is that the priority of the Department of State will be the United States — furthering the national interests of this country. The mandate, he said, is clear: "Everything we do must be justified by the answer to one of three questions: Does it make us stronger, does it make us safer, and does it make us more prosperous? If it doesn't do one of those three things, we will not do it." He added that one of the primary goals of American foreign policy is the promotion of peace — peace through strength, and always without abandoning American values.
Rubio went straight to work at the State Department the same day, meeting the foreign ministers of Japan, Australia, and India and taking part in a joint statement by the Quad foreign ministers. According to the Department, the Secretary's main priority is to have a Department of State that puts America First.
