Mike Pompeo, who served as the CIA director and secretary of state in the Trump administration, discussed current events and his governmental experience at an event hosted by the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics. Amid international news of riots caused by former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s supporters and possible connections to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, Mr. Pompeo said he does not think the events in the U.S. influenced election denial and the peaceful transfer of power in Brazil. Moreover, when asked if he plans to run for president, he said, “I don’t know,” and was still considering the decision. He also discussed key events during his tenure as secretary of state, including mediation of the Abraham Accords and negotiating with the Taliban to withdraw from Afghanistan. close
