President Donald Trump has named John Bolton, former United Nations ambassador, to succeed the retiring Army Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster as national security adviser, The Hill reported Thursday.

Trump announced in a tweet Thursday that Bolton’s appointment will take effect April 9.

Bolton is a Fox News analyst and currently works at the American Enterprise Institute.
