US President Joe Biden gives the head of the CIA, William Burns, a seat in the federal cabinet. Biden announced this in a written statement. Burns has always provided him with clear and straightforward analysis that put the safety of the American people first. The CIA plays a vital role in its government’s national security decisions, and at a critical time.
The various federal ministers are represented in the US cabinet, as well as other leading members of the government, including Biden’s chief of staff Jeff Zients and the US ambassador to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield. Also at the table is the secret service coordinator Avril Haines. So far, however, not a single representative of one of the US secret services has been represented there.
Burns’ appointment to the group is seen more as a symbolic act, but at the same time as a sign of the important role he played for Biden in the crises with Russia or China in recent months. Burns said in a statement he was honored.
