Vance Named Secretary of State in Carter Admin
President elect Jimmy Carter selects Cyrus R. Vance as secretary of state with Kissinger to remain a policy influence only as Carter prioritizes a practical, delegated foreign policy. Vance, a longtime Wall Street lawyer and former deputy defense secretary, promises minimal travel but firm management, signaling a shift from Kissinger’s personal diplomacy to a team approach. Carter notes Vance is an experienced negotiator and adviser who will report to him on major policy while other negotiators carry out deals. The announcement stresses cautious progress on Arab-Israeli talks and replacement of the lone-diplomacy approach with coordinated departmental leadership.
