Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will be touring overseas ahead of a possible presidential bid, sources told Reuters. For example, he will visit Japan, South Korea, Israel and the UK.
Although the details of the trip are still unknown and it is officially a commercial mission, the American media suspect that DeSantis wants to refine his image abroad. The governor is expected to run for the Republican presidency in early summer.
DeSantis wants to get a profile
The governor is currently focusing primarily on domestic social issues. For example, he strongly opposes LGBTI topics, racial issues and has opposed corona measures during the corona pandemic. Earlier he spoke about the war in Ukraine, which he called a “territorial dispute” that had no strategic interest for the United States. Those statements drew criticism from Democrats and many Republicans.
In Japan, DeSantis is expected to meet with Prime Minister Fumio Kishida in Tokyo, the sources told Reuters. He will also travel to Seoul, Tel Aviv and London. In addition to overseas travel, DeSantis also seeks to bring knowledge of foreign countries to his team. For example, you are about to hire a consultant with extensive knowledge in the fields of foreign policy, cyber security and intelligence.
