Deputy National Security Adviser Andy Baker will leave the Trump administration in the next few weeks, Axios reported.

Baker was previously the national security adviser to Vice President JD Vance and worked closely with him on negotiations to end the Iran war.

"Andy is an exceptionally gifted, deeply thoughtful advisor who has served the President and me with distinction," Vance said. "He has been an indispensable member of our administration's national security team. For the over three years that Andy has been by my side, I've always valued his counsel and have been grateful for the difficult work he's done."

He reportedly had planned to leave much earlier, but remained in his post to oversee a transition of staff.
