In a vote conducted Tuesday, January 26 local time, Blinken won 78 votes to 22 of the total 100 members of the Senate controlled by the Democratic Party, as reported by Reuters.
Proposed by Joe Biden, Blinken has been Biden's longtime confidant. Most recently, he served as Deputy Secretary of State during the Barack Obama and Joe Biden administrations.
Blinken pledged to work more closely with allies of the United States, after the previous Donald Trump Administration's foreign policy used an 'America First' approach.
