Donald Trump chose former prosecutor Matt Whitaker as the new US ambassador to NATO
The elected president donald trump chose lawyer and lobbyist Matthew Whitaker as its US ambassador to NATO. Whitaker served as acting attorney general during the Republican’s first term, who said he will “strengthen relationships with our allies in the NATO and will stand firm in the face of threats to peace and stability.”
Trump defined his former attorney general as “a strong warrior and a loyal patriot, who will ensure that the interests of the United States are promoted and defended.” In addition, he noted that the candidate for new ambassador “will put America first“, the motto that trump used to promote a more isolationist foreign policy.
Whitaker was chief of staff to Trump’s first attorney general, Jeff Sessionsand then replaced it after Sessions was fired for his decision to withdraw from the Russia investigation. Whitaker held the position for several months, on an interim basis and without Senate confirmation, until William Barr was confirmed in February 2019.
