Who advises the US president on foreign policy affairs?

  1. The Vice President

  2. The US Secretary of State

  3. The Defense Secretary

  4. The National Security Advisor

The correct answer is: The US Secretary of State

The US Secretary of State is responsible for advising the US president on foreign policy affairs. This includes representing the US in international negotiations and meetings, managing diplomatic relationships with other countries, and overseeing the State Department. The Vice President may also play a role in advising the president on foreign policy, but it is not their primary responsibility. The Defense Secretary is primarily concerned with military and national defense matters, not foreign relations. The National Security Advisor also plays a role in advising the president on foreign policy, but they are not a formal part of the presidential cabinet like the Secretary of State.
