Trump has chosen former acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker as U.S. ambassador to NATO, emphasizing Whitaker's loyalty and capability to enhance U.S. relations with NATO allies.
The choice of Whitaker is unusual due to his law enforcement background rather than expertise in foreign policy, raising questions about his suitability for the NATO post.
Whitaker's role as ambassador to NATO comes amidst Trump's skepticism about the alliance, particularly regarding member nations not meeting their defense spending commitments.
Whitaker's prior experience includes serving as acting attorney general during a critical period of investigation into Russian interference, positioning him as a defender of Trump's interests.
