On Nov.

13, Suella Braverman was fired as foreign secretary, and James Cleverly took her place, NPR reports.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak appointed Cameron as the new foreign secretary.

Cameron was prime minister from 2010 to 2016 and triggered Brexit.

.

His appointment came as a shock since non-lawmakers rarely assume senior government posts, NPR reports.

Additionally, a former prime minister has not had a Cabinet job in decades.

According to Cameron, Britain is "facing a daunting set of international challenges, including the war in Ukraine and the crisis in the Middle East.".

While I have been out of front-line politics for the last seven years, I hope that my experience ā€” as Conservative leader for 11 years and prime minister for six ā€” will assist me in helping the prime minister to meet these vital challenges, David Cameron, U.K. foreign secretary, via statement.

While some politicians support Cameron's appointment, several of his peers view the move as a sign of "desperation.".

A few weeks ago, Rishi Sunak said David Cameron was part of a failed status quo.

Now he's bringing him back as his life raft.

, Labour lawmaker Pat McFadden, via statement.

It's difficult to believe that this is going to impress voters, whether they are convinced Brexiteers who despise David Cameron for being a remainer, or convinced remainers who despise David Cameron for holding and losing a referendum.

, Tim Bale, professor of politics at Queen Mary University of London, via statement
