Ambassador VS joins European politics

berlin - The new US ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell, has stated to the astonishment of many that he wants to actively engage with European politics in favor of what he calls 'conservative forces'. The German government has angrily asked for clarification about Grenell's unconventional intentions. She may get that Wednesday when Grenell visits the German Foreign Office for the first time.

Ambassadors are usually not expected to publicly interfere in the domestic politics of the country where they are stationed. They must focus on the interests of their own country.

However, Grenell told the right-wing populist medium Breitbart that he wants to support European conservatives. 'Conservative Europe is on the rise. 'According to Grenell, this is also because' President Trump has shown that you do not have to submit to the idea that the elite for elections has already arranged who is participating and who is winning. '

Grenell has been the American ambassador in Berlin since 8 May. He soon came into disrepute by instructing German companies that trade with Iran to complete that trade.
