'Power Broker' Trump Eldest Son: "Removing Neocons and Hawks from Second-Term Administration"

Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of President-elect Donald Trump and considered a key figure in the next administration, announced that hawks advocating for war will be excluded from the second term administration.

On the 10th (local time), according to the British daily The Telegraph, Trump Jr. conveyed this message through social media (SNS).

He replied to a post by a right-wing American comedian on SNS stating, "Maximum pressure must be applied to prevent neocons and hawks from entering the Trump administration," saying, "I 100% agree. I will do that." This statement appears to reflect the views of President-elect Trump, who prefers "America First" and diplomatically "isolationism."

Neocons believe that peace in the international community must be maintained even through military force, and that the U.S. should actively engage in various international conflicts. John Bolton, former U.S. National Security Advisor, who disagreed with former President Trump on issues such as lifting sanctions on North Korea during the first administration, is a representative figure.

President-elect Trump announced the day before that he would not appoint former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Both had expressed the position that the U.S. should provide weapons to Ukraine.

It appears that in the second term administration, Trump intends to implement foreign policy according to his own vision without interference from mainstream conservative figures within the Republican Party.

On the 7th, Trump Jr. stated in a broadcast interview that he would not appoint anyone who thinks they know better than the president.
