Predsednik SAD Donald Tramp još jednom je uspeo da šokira amričku i svetsku javnost, pošto je saopštio da će šef Pentagona Džejmsa Matisa biti penzionisan kraje februara naredne godine. Kao i sve druge velike odluke koje je donosio, Tramp je i ovu prvo podelio na Tviteru.

Matis i Tramp

Kako je šef Bele kuće naveo, posle dve godine, Matis će napustiti funkciju ministra odbrane, a njegov naslednik biće ubrzo imenovan.

General Jim Mattis will be retiring, with distinction, at the end of February, after having served my Administration as Secretary of Defense for the past two years. During Jim’s tenure, tremendous progress has been made, especially with respect to the purchase of new fighting.... — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 20, 2018

Tramp je naveo da general Matis bio od velike pomoći u pronalaženju saveznika u drugim zemljama, na čemu mu se zahvalio.

....equipment. General Mattis was a great help to me in getting allies and other countries to pay their share of military obligations. A new Secretary of Defense will be named shortly. I greatly thank Jim for his service! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 20, 2018
