US Navy Secretary John Phelan resigns from office with immediate effect
Videos
US Navy Secretary John Phelan is leaving his post with immediate effect, Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell announced overnight on Thursday on the social network X. The Pentagon did not publish an official justification for the decision to remove him. According to some media outlets, the position was vacated due to slow implementation of reforms and disputes with Pentagon leadership. Phelan held the position of head of the US Navy at a time when the United States is grappling with strategic challenges on the international stage and the need to modernize its military capabilities. The role of acting Navy Secretary will be taken over by Deputy Secretary Hung Cao, who will perform the function until a new secretary is nominated and confirmed by the Senate. The change in the Navy's top leadership represents a significant moment in the personnel restructuring of the Pentagon. The precise reasons for Phelan's departure from office have not been disclosed, suggesting that the decision may have been related to an internal conflict or a misalignment in the strategic direction of military reforms. teraz.sk ↗ svet.sme.sk ↗
