President-elect Donald Trump sprang a surprise, on Tuesday, as he picked Pete Hegseth-an army veteran, a Fox News host best known for his positions against "wokeism" in the armed services and women in combat and for his calls to sack generals who promote diversity as the secretary of defence.
Trump also appointed a former Congressman and head of national intelligence, John Ratcliffe, as the director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA); a personal friend, pro-Israel hawk and New York real estate developer Steven Witkoff as his special envoy for Middle East; and former Arkansas governor and another staunchly pro-Israel hawk Mark Huckabee as the ambassador to Israel.
But it was Hegseth's appointment that left Senators, officials in Pentagon, personnel in the services, analysts in the American strategic community, diplomats in Washington DC, and journalists scrambling to know more about the man who, if confirmed by the Senate, will be in charge of a budget of close to $900 billion and over 2.8 million personnel across services and Pentagon's civilian bureaucracy.
