WASHINGTON -- The White House on Tuesday announced the retirement of Deputy Chief of Staff Joe Hagin, who led logistical preparations for last week's historic summit between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.
Hagin headed a delegation to Singapore in recent weeks to prepare for the June 12 meeting in the city-state.
"Joe Hagin has been a huge asset to my administration," Trump said in a statement. "He planned and executed the longest and one of the most historic foreign trips ever made by a President, and he did it all perfectly."
