Tillerson says no truth to reports that he is being replaced

WASHINGTON – US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Saturday denied that he was leaving his post to be replaced by CIA Director Mike Pompeo.

Asked if there was any truth to the multiple reports about him this week, Tillerson said: "None."

"People need to get better sources," he said in a brief interview at the State Department ahead of a dinner to celebrate the recipients of this year's Kennedy Center Honors awards. Tillerson said he hoped to be at the same reception a year from now.
