After the former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo stepped down, the outside world has been following his movements. US media disclosed on the 26th that Pompeo has joined a conservative think tank and may be preparing for his participation in the 2024 presidential campaign.
According to a US media "Axios" report on the 26th, Pompeo is now an ordinary citizen. He works for the non-profit organization Hudson Institute in Washington, where he has the opportunity to participate in policy discussions and approach the Republican Party's major donors.
Pompeo said in a statement to the agency: "I am very happy to join the Hudson Institute and look forward to contributing to the mission of promoting American leadership and global participation."
The Hudson Institute is one of the top five conservative think tanks in the United States. It was founded in 1961. Its research focuses mainly on national security and foreign policy. In recent years, it has focused on Chinese issues, including CCP strategy, spy infiltration, South China Sea disputes, and Taiwan Strait threats.
The report said that Hudson is very popular among conservatives, who see it as a platform for policy recommendations.
Sarah May Stern, Chairman of the Hudson Board of Directors, said: Pompeo’s performance in public service is excellent, and his commitment to the values of our mission will be an exciting opportunity for collaboration.
In the United States, there have been constant reports about Pompeo's running for the next president. The day after Biden took office, Pompeo tweeted "1384 days", and this number was exactly the number of days before the 2024 presidential election.
In this regard, the US "Capitol Hill" analyzed that Pompeo is in the countdown to the 2024 US presidential election. He is considered one of a dozen potential Republican presidential candidates for 2024.
US "Newsweek" also said that Pompeo himself intends to run for the Republican presidential nomination. He seems to position himself as an influential commentator on the Biden regime and is likely to criticize some of the new president's agenda.
Pompeo said in an interview with Newsmax TV on the morning of leaving office that he hopes that the Biden administration can continue to be tough on the CCP. I also hope that the American people will also maintain pressure on the CCP.
Because the new President Biden and his cabinet members have unclear relations with the CCP. Before leaving office, Pompeo posted dozens of tweets to warn the world about the danger of the CCP.
He said: "The Chinese Communist Party is the core threat of our time. The Chinese Communist Party's authoritarianism is not the future the free world wants, but if we let go of our guard, our future will be like this."
Pompeo also detailed the diplomatic achievements of the Trump administration and reviewed the friendly measures for Taiwan during his tenure, including lifting restrictions on Taiwan-US exchanges and sending high-level officials to visit Taiwan. At the same time, praise Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen and bombard the CCP as the main threat of this era.
Pompeo also issued a statement stating that the U.S. declared that the CCP’s persecution of Uyghur Muslims and other religious groups was "genocide". This was an "important decision" made after careful consideration. He hoped that the Biden administration would follow and able to continue to implement this policy.
