exodus

Mr Tillerson knew little about affairs of state — a lifetime in the oil business did not bestow understanding of the geopolitical tides of the times. His promised reform of the state department became an exodus of top-flight diplomats.

蒂勒森對(duì)*事務(wù)知之甚少——石油業(yè)的職業(yè)生涯沒有讓他理解當(dāng)今時(shí)代的地緣政治浪潮。他承諾的國(guó)務(wù)院改革導(dǎo)致一流外交官紛紛離去。
