Marco Rubio has unveiled a sweeping reorganization of the U.S. State Department, proposing significant staff reductions and the closure of numerous offices. The plan includes a 15% cut to domestic staff and aims to eliminate 132 offices deemed redundant. Critics have expressed concern that these changes, which target programs focused on human rights and war crimes, may undermine U.S. global leadership and values. The Trump administration, which is pushing for a major reorganization of the department, is considering cuts to funding, potentially halving the State Department budget and shuttering many embassies, particularly in Africa. Diplomats have voiced anxiety over the drastic measures outlined in leaked memos and executive orders.
