US may oppose Macron's ambassador pick
France publicly criticized the United States' human rights record, which provoked anger among some senior American officials, especially within the Trump administration. This led the United States to consider delaying or rejecting the appointment of the French candidate for the ambassadorial position in Washington, an unusual move that could increase tensions between the allies, particularly given past disputes over trade and regional issues. The candidate was Aurélien Le Chovalle, who was expected to take up the role by September. However, obstacles arose after a message from the French mission criticizing Washington’s stance during the vote to extend the mandate of the Human Rights Commissioner. While France’s support for renewing the mandate does not hinder cooperation with the United States, recent tense behavior was exemplified by the withdrawal of the American delegation from a UN Security Council session during France’s speech.
