AI summary

According to РБК-Україна, US President Donald Trump does not plan to dismiss Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who faces impeachment, and backs him in resisting efforts to remove him from office.

According to Sputnik, Republican Representative Thomas Massie formally submitted an impeachment resolution against the war secretary on Monday. According to ТСН, the main complaints include taking part in a military operation against Iran without the approval of the US legislature. LENTA.RU reports that Hegseth dismissed the move, saying Congress would fail again, and recalled that lawmakers twice tried to impeach him during Trump's first term.

According to РИА Новости, Trump gave Hegseth top marks for his answers to the resolution's sponsor, though that outlet's excerpt ends before naming the details of those answers.
