Trump admin recalling around 30 ambassadors as part of State Dept realignment

The Trump administration is recalling about 30 U.S. ambassadors worldwide to align diplomatic representation with President Trump’s America First agenda, Fox News reported.

Officials emphasized the recalls are standard practice, with ambassadors being reassigned within the State Department rather than fired or punished.

The administration said decisions were made to maintain continuity, avoiding recalls from countries at war or involved in critical negotiations.

The large-scale recall is unusual but intended to expedite realignment with the president’s policy priorities, Fox News has reported.

Returning diplomats are encouraged to seek new assignments to continue serving U.S. interests under the America First framework.
