Mark Esper had previously said that he would not deploy the army in the protests that erupted after George Floyd’s death.

Donald Trump ousted Defense Secretary Mark Esper, writes CNN. According to the news portal, Esper had written his resignation weeks ago because he expected the president who had recently fallen against Joe Biden to be fired, but according to the CNN news, he did so without presenting his resignation letter.

Esper’s successor was Christopher Miller, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Trump.

The relationship between the former defense minister and the president has been strained for some time. They also colluded after the assassination of General Kasim Suleiman. Trump previously said that four upcoming attacks justified the US liquidation of the head of the special unit of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard called al-Kuds, while Esper denied to CBS that Iran was specifically prepared to attack the four US embassies. .

The minister said in June that he would not deploy an army against protesters in demonstrations that broke out after George Floyd’s death, which did not win Trump’s favor.
