Changes in the US administration may affect Kerry

US President Barack Obama plans to make some major changes to the Cabinet after the Senate and House of Representative elections set to take place next month, Israeli newspaper Maariv quoted the New York Times as saying.

The New York Times suggested that these administrative changes may affect both US Secretary of State John Kerry and US Secretary of Defence Chuck Hagel.

The paper quoted many officials within the Democratic Party who attributed these changes to the many failures in US security and foreign policy, which include: the crisis in Ukraine, the rise and spread of the Islamic State (ISIS), the Ebola epidemic and the current tensions in US-Israeli relations.
