United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo assured this Tuesday that the legacy of the outgoing president, Donald Trump, is “stronger” than the attack on the Capitol and has emphasized that “history will reflect the goodness of his administration” .
The head of US diplomacy, a staunch ally of the New York magnate, has stated that the Trump administration “will be remembered for the good work the president and his team have done.”
In an interview with Salem’s radio station, Pompeo has indicated that “the actions will show that a good work has been done on behalf of the American people” and has insisted that the riots and the attack on the Capitol “will not overshadow everything else.”
“What happened on Wednesday was terrible, and I have already said on several occasions that the people who participated should be identified and brought to justice,” he assured before stating that “they are criminals who should be treated as such. . “
Pompeo has thus avoided criticizing Trump for his role in the incidents that took place in Congress last week, although the president has been accused of instigating the “uprising.”
