Washington: US President Donald Trump has dismissed his press secretary, Katie Zacharia, just five days after she took up the role, following a chaotic press conference and questions over her claims about her legal credentials.
Trump reportedly questioned whether Zacharia was suitable for the position after the briefing, which drew criticism over its handling and the statements she made regarding her status as an attorney.
The dismissal marks a swift end to Zacharia’s tenure, with the circumstances surrounding the decision raising questions about the administration’s choice of spokesperson.
