Donald Trump made fresh diplomatic picks on dec-10th naming two well-known figures from his inner-circle for key ambassador roles. His sons fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle got selected for Greece while long-time ally Tom Barrack received the Turkey position
Kimberly has been a close friend and ally‚ perfectly suited to foster strong bilateral relations with Greece‚ advancing our interests on issues ranging from defense cooperation to trade and economic innovation
The ex-Fox News host Guilfoyle (who got engaged to Donald Trump Jr about 4 years ago) joins other family-connected appointees in Trumps growing diplomatic roster:
- Charles Kushner - picked for France ambassador
- Massad Boulos - chosen as mid-east senior adviser
Private-equity exec Tom Barrack brings his own background to the Turkey role - a business-savvy friend who stood by Trump through thick-and-thin (even after facing and winning a legal case about UAE connections back in 22). Trump describes him as a “well-respected and experienced voice of reason; ready to represent US interests in the region
