Kimberly Guilfoyle, the nominee for U.S. Ambassador to Greece, is reportedly undergoing diplomatic training as she awaits Senate confirmation. Initial reports suggested she aimed to arrive in Athens by late June to attend the annual Fourth of July reception, but observers of the congressional appointment process have deemed that timeline unlikely. Her confirmation hearing is expected between late June and early July, with a potential arrival in Athens projected for early September.

The positive Kimberly Guilfoyle climate in Greece is reflected in a report on the US website Breibart with the new US ambassador to Greece declaring “honor and humility” for the “support from Greek allies” as the article features statements from Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, Health Minister Adonis Georgiadis and Archbishop Hieronymos.

The next US ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle, spoke publicly for the first time about taking on her new position.
