Biden's chief European advisor resigns

An architect of President Joe Biden's Europe policy is ending her time at the National Security Council, leaving the administration, Report informs, citing Politico.

Amanda Sloat has been a quiet but key figure of the Biden administration’s efforts to mend relationships with traditional allies and counter Russia. From the transition team to her current role as senior director for European affairs, she drafted key pillars of the new team’s transatlantic strategy and accompanied Biden on eight trips to Europe, including for five NATO summits and two EU summits. She was also the driving force behind elevating the “Bucharest Nine,” a group of Eastern European NATO countries brought together to steel the region.

“It has been an amazing three years, but it’s time. I’m tired,” she told NatSec Daily in a Thursday morning interview confirming her departure.
