The National Security Council (NSC) is the committee that links the president's key foreign and military policy advisors.

The National Security Council (NSC) is a forum for the President of the United States to discuss and coordinate matters of national security with advisors. It is composed of senior officials from various government departments, including the President, Vice President, Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, and others. The NSC's primary role is to provide advice and recommendations to the President on matters related to national security and foreign policy.
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was established after President Truman signed the National Security Act of 1947, which also created the National Security Council. The purpose of the CIA is to covertly obtain intelligence from foreign countries, thus the CIA is given a great deal of freedom so that they can collect the intelligence without having to expose the United States's involvement in any covert operations. In addition, in 1948 the National Security Council issued a directive known as NSC 10/2, which gave the CIA even greater freedom and discretion to conduct clandestine operations in order to obtain vital intelligence for the US government.
