Victoria Nuland, known for her blunt, interventionist style exemplified by her 'F-ck the EU' remark and her role as a combative liberal hawk under three presidential administrations, has reportedly taken early retirement. Her tenure was marked by strong support for U.S. backing for Ukraine and NATO expansion. Speculations, analyzed by Sergey Strokan, arise that her departure was influenced by a preference within the Biden administration for a China-focused approach over Nuland's Russia-centric stance. Comments, including those from Daniel McAdams, suggest that agencies such as the CIA, Defense Department, and NSA viewed Nuland as having her own agenda, leading to internal discussions about the need to 'reign her in.'
