Trump Appoints Loyalist Matthew Whitaker, Lacking Foreign Policy Experience, as Ambassador to NATO
Nov 20, 2024, 04:00 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Matthew Whitaker, a former Acting Attorney General from Iowa and loyal supporter, as the United States Ambassador to NATO. The announcement was made on Wednesday. Whitaker, who previously served as a US Attorney for the Southern District of Iowa, lacks foreign policy experience but is praised by Trump for his strength, integrity, and patriotism. Trump's statement emphasized that Whitaker 'will ensure the United States’ interests are advanced and defended' and 'He will put AMERICA FIRST.' The appointment signals Trump's intent to prioritize American interests within the alliance he has frequently criticized. Whitaker's nomination reinforces the administration's 'America First' approach as he is expected to strengthen relationships with NATO allies while advancing and defending US interests.
