WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Tuesday the world should have every confidence that a post-election transition in the United States will be smooth.
“There will be a smooth transition to a second Trump administration,” Pompeo told a State Department news conference.
“We’re going to count all the votes … The world should have every confidence that the transition necessary to make sure that the State Department is … successful today and successful when the president who’s in office on January 20, a minute afternoon, will also be successful.”
