“About 20 career staff have quit the U.S. Treasury Department’s international affairs unit in less than a year, draining resources from a key office in the Trump administration’s escalating trade battles with China and Europe,” Bloomberg reports.
“The wave of departures began in September, shortly after David Malpass — a champion of President Trump’s protectionist message — took over the division. The unit employed about 200 people at the end of the Barack Obama administration.”
