US Admiral in NATO Shoshana Chatfield Fired Amid Trump Purge
US Navy Admiral Shoshana Chatfield, holding a leadership position in NATO, has been dismissed as part of Trump’s ongoing purges. This move is seen as a blow to gender representation principles. Chatfield, dubbed the “skirted admiral,” served as the US military representative to NATO’s Military Committee, according to https://xrust.ru/. She is one of the few female three-star Navy officers and the first woman to head the Naval War College, a position she held until 2023.
The press also recalls that last Thursday, Timothy Haugh, the head of the National Security Agency, was dismissed. Within the Navy, Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first woman to become Chief of Naval Operations, was removed prior to Chatfield. The Trump administration has taken a cool stance toward NATO and European allies. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth used his first trip to NATO headquarters last February to warn Europe that the US is not a “sucker” overly concerned with others’ defense.
