A top National Security Council official, Victoria Coates, was moved to a new role at the U.S. Energy Department, the White House confirmed on Thursday while rejecting reports that she is the author of “Anonymous: A Warning” or a related New York Times editorial.

Coates has been an official inside the Trump White House since he took office three years ago, playing a key role in the administration’s deliberations with Iran.
