Trump Administration Removes Vice Adm. Shoshana Chatfield from NATO Post

The firing of Chatfield, linked to her support for diversity, is the latest in a series of high-profile military dismissals under Trump targeting 'woke' policies.

  • Vice Adm. Shoshana Chatfield, the only woman on NATO's military committee, was removed from her position by the Trump administration over the weekend.
  • Chatfield's dismissal is part of a broader campaign targeting senior military officers who have supported diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.
  • She is temporarily replaced by Brig. Gen. Sean Flynn, her deputy at NATO, as the administration seeks to shift leadership priorities.
  • The decision aligns with efforts led by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and conservative groups to eliminate what they label as 'woke' policies in the military.
  • Lawmakers, including Sen. Mark Warner, have raised concerns that these firings could weaken U.S. military morale, national security, and global alliances.
