US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle is facing calls for a State Department review over her conduct in Athens, MS Now reported.
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen raised concerns about Guilfoyle’s alleged “inappropriate uses of an official position,” including repeatedly bringing lobbyist Christos Marafatsos into meetings with foreign officials and promoting business interests tied to one of his clients.
💬 Rep. Gregory Meeks went further: “If these reports are accurate, Ambassador Guilfoyle is unfit to represent the United States abroad and should be removed from her position.”
Guilfoyle’s controversy adds to a growing list of diplomatic headaches for Trump: US ambassadors have also sparked disputes in South Africa, Belgium, France, Poland, Canada, Italy and India.
An embassy official in Greece rejected the criticism, saying Guilfoyle “continues to follow all State Department ethical guidelines.”
