Trump removes Greece ambassador amid allegations
The White House has dismissed U.S. Ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Gildweil, following reports revealing her misuse of diplomatic influence for financial gains. These included promoting the interests of an energy company, threatening Greek officials, and a businessman demanding debt repayment in exchange for political favors. These actions came after journalistic investigations and an internal review by the State Department. Despite assurances from Trump of dissatisfaction with the disclosures, Gildweil denied the allegations and pledged to defend her reputation. During her tenure in Athens, Gildweil became the subject of widespread diplomatic controversy, particularly after requesting China to sell its stake in the Port of Piraeus, which angered Beijing and prompted official Greek calls for clarification.
