Defense Secretary Ashton Carter and Director of National intelligence James Clapper addressed the staffing proposal to the President of the United States. They asked Barack Obama to fire the head of the national security Agency Michael Rogers. About it reports The Washington Post.
According to the publication, in this post, the leaders of N. I. and the Pentagon want to see a civilian.
Media noted that high-ranking officials of the US administration was outraged by the arbitrariness of Rogers. On 17 November, the head of the NSA, without warning, went to a meeting, and elected President of the United States Donald trump, without telling his superiors.
Moreover, the representatives of the agencies refused to comment about the reaction of Obama.
We will remind, earlier the head of the NSA asked American companies to provide the authorities with access to the networks.
