Kimberly Guilfoyle resigns as US Ambassador to Greece amid investigations

Kimberly Guilfoyle US Ambassador to Greece State Department investigation Donald Trump ethical allegations

Kimberly Guilfoyle has resigned from her position as the United States Ambassador to Greece following a series of allegations regarding her professional conduct and personal finances. The resignation follows reports of an investigation by the State Department Inspector General into potential ethical violations, including a hostile work environment, improper use of private aircraft, and the acceptance of gifts.

Reports indicate that Guilfoyle made several unsuccessful attempts to secure political support to maintain her post, reaching out to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, US Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack, and Fox News Chairman Emeritus Rupert Murdoch. Sources suggest that President Donald Trump did not respond to her calls for assistance.

Financial allegations have also surfaced, including claims that Guilfoyle pressured a conservative activist to help cover a $100,000 American Express bill and that she boasted about being bankrolled by Greek tycoons for luxury travel. Additionally, a lawsuit was filed in Kentucky by Erik Dieter, who claims his legal actions against her were motivated by revenge after she allegedly failed to assist him regarding a separate matter involving Dr. Aboubakar Durani.

Guilfoyle has rejected all allegations, describing them as false and vowing to defend her reputation and integrity.
