Trump Taps Army Vet And China Critic Mike Waltz As His National Security Adviser, Is Xi Spooked?

President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Republican Representative Mike Waltz as his national security adviser. 50-year-old Mike Waltz is an ex-Army Green Beret who served multiple combat tours in Afghanistan. Mike Waltz's background in defence policy and strong stances on China suggest a focus on addressing challenges in the Asia-Pacific region. As national security advisor, Waltz will coordinate US foreign policy within the West Wing and briefing the president on developments across the globe. Donald Trump had four national security advisors in his first term, including Michael Flynn, who was fired after less than a month on the job.
