Originally reported this morning in the Wall Street Journal and Reuters, this afternoon President Biden announced his intention to nominate Alan Estevez to serve as Under Secretary for Industry and Security at the Commerce Department.
The White House press release called Mr. Estevez “a recognized leader in the defense and aerospace community, [that] joined Deloitte Consulting as a national security strategy and logistics executive in June 2017 after completing a 36 year career with the Department of Defense.”
Earlier today, China Tech Threat provided an initial analysis of Mr. Estevez’s expectant nomination followed by a panel featuring four prior BIS directors.
China Tech Threat will continue to cover Mr. Estevez’s nomination in the days and weeks to come.
