US President Barack Obama said he and Hagel had determined it was an "appropriate time for him to complete his service."
Hagel, a former Republican senator, is the first high-level member of Obama's national security team to
step down in the wake of both a disastrous midterm election for the
president's party and persistent criticism about the administration's
policies in the Middle East and elsewhere. It's unclear whether Hagel's
forced resignation signals the start of a broader shake-up of the
president's team
