Trump bypassed security experts on Iran
Donald Trump significantly reduced the size of the National Security Council, from roughly 200 staff members to fewer than 100, over the past year. Experts suggest this downsizing hampered coordination with allies and assessments of Iran’s strategies, particularly regarding the Strait of Hormuz, and relied on a small circle of advisers instead of the broader expert network. This restructuring has been criticized for potentially missing key opportunities and complicating US foreign policy decisions during tensions with Iran.
