Sean O'Neill (diplomat)

Last updated

I think the first thing I would do is to point out to Thailand, which is one of our only treaty allies in Asia, that wars like this, conflicts like this, do nothing to help their people. [5]

O'Neill was confirmed by the Senate on October 7, 2025. [6] He was among a group of over 100 nominees confirmed with a simple majority vote of 51 to 47, including former US Ambassador Michael DeSombre as assistant secretary of state for East Asian and Pacific Affairs. [6]
