Pompeo s last trip as secretary shortened, then canceled Abigail Williams and Josh Lederman and Carlo Angerer and Alexander Smith © Provided by NBC News Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s last overseas trip as top U.S. diplomat has been canceled, the State Department announced Tuesday, citing the need for him to stay in Washington to prepare for the transition to the Biden administration. Pompeo was set to travel to Brussels on Wednesday for meetings with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and Belgian Foreign Minister Sophie Wilmès, but the State Department called off all planned travel this week. The secretary’s brief European tour was to initially include a stop in Luxembourg but officials from the small NATO country called off the visit after last week s pro-Trump riot at the U.S. Capitol, according to three sources with knowledge of the decision.
