Cameron takes office confident of making use of his "experience" in the face of "profound global changes"

He admits that he has disagreed with "some decisions" by Sunak, but considers him an "exemplary" leader for "a difficult time"

MADRID, 13 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) -

Former British Prime Minister David Cameron, the new head of Foreign Affairs in the United Kingdom, hopes to make use of his political "experience" to lead the United Kingdom's diplomacy in a period of "profound global changes" and, although he has admitted that he has not liked "some decisions" of the current head of Government, Rishi Sunak, considers that he has also demonstrated "exemplary leadership in a difficult time."

Cameron's incorporation into the cabinet, seven years after resigning after the Brexit referendum, has been the big surprise of a Government crisis triggered by the dismissal of the Minister of the Interior, Suella Braverman. "The Prime Minister has asked me to be Foreign Secretary and I have gladly accepted," Cameron said in a statement.

It does so at a time of "overwhelming" challenges, among which it has cited Russian aggression in Ukraine and the crisis in the Middle East, and with the aim that the United Kingdom continues to stand by its allies and work so that "its voice is heard." voice" on the international scene.

"Although I have been out of the political front line for the last seven years, I hope that my experience - as Conservative leader for eleven years and Prime Minister for six - will allow me to help the Prime Minister face these vital challenges," he added. .

In this sense, he pointed out that stability and security at a global level is also essential for national interests, in a message in which he praised the good work of the United Kingdom's diplomatic staff. "International security," she added, "is vital to our internal security."

Cameron wants to "help" Sunak to work for security and prosperity, with a view to putting together "the strongest possible team" to shore up the Conservatives also in the face of the next general election. The polls now place the Labor Party as the favorite.

Among those who have already congratulated Cameron on joining the Government is his successor in Downing Street, Theresa May, who has praised the "immense experience on the international scene" of the new head of diplomacy. May has indicated that this experience will be key "in this time of great uncertainty."

Cameron will fill the portfolio left vacant by James Cleverly, who makes the jump to Interior to fill Braverman's vacancy.
