The new US attorney General will appoint a relative of the former US ambassador to China, Terry Branstead: The Senate voted to confirm Merrick Garland as the new attorney general of the country, reports CNN.
70 senators, including Democrats and Republicans, voted for his candidacy, and 30 voted against.
"America can breathe a sigh of relief because we will finally have someone like Merrick Garland running the Justice Department," said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat from New York. He called Garland a man of " integrity, independence, respect for the rule of law, and authority on both sides."
Merrick Garland served as a judge of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit from 1997 to 2021. He is a second cousin of former Iowa Governor and former U.S. Ambassador to China Terry Branstead.
On December 15, 2020, former US President Donald Trump announced the resignation of Attorney General William Barr. The reason for the decision was called both Trump's refusal to admit defeat in the presidential election, and Barr's words that the US Department of Justice did not find mass fraud in them. Before that, it became known that Barr knew about the investigation against Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, but kept quiet about it so as not to influence the outcome of the election.
Barr has served as the U.S. Attorney General since February 2019. He also served in this position under President George H. W. Bush from 1991-1993.
