President of the United States Donald Trump has decided on a candidate for the post of new secretary of defense. Such a statement was made by his administration.



In place of the head of the Pentagon, Trump proposed Mark Esper, who is now acting Secretary of Defense. Previously, he served as Secretary of the US Army. Before Esper became acting Head of the Pentagon, Patrick Shanahan was on this post. It was Trump who sought his permanent approval for the post of head of the defense department. But Shanahan unexpectedly withdrew, citing the fact that he would like to spend more time with his family. Then the idea came to put Mark Esper in this place.

Trump intends to nominate Ryan McCarthy to the vacated post of Minister of Ground Forces. It is also planned to replace the Deputy Minister of Defense. It may be David Norkvist.

The approval of Mark Esper for the post of head of the military department will have to be approved by the Senate of the American Congress. Donald Trump appealed to his supporters to support his candidate for the post of Secretary of Defense of the United States.

The previous head of the Pentagon resigned due to disagreements with the US president.
