Greek president Konstantinos Tasoulas has not planned any official farewell for Kimberly Guilfoyle as she leaves her ambassadorship amid turmoil. According to protocol, a grand send-off is arranged when an ambassador ends their term but in this case, Guilfoyle is accused of many wrongdoings and her resignation was prompted by an undubious order from the White House that she had to resign. “Protocol has it that with every outgoing ambassador a courtesy call is placed with the head of state, the prime minister and the foreign minister,” a source at the Athens embassy told the Daily Mail. “However, because of her sudden ousting she will not be allowed to say goodbye.”A top aide for the Greek president, however, said that Guilfoyle is so brazen that she may forcefully extract a farewell from the Greek leadership. “She is so brazen that no one is discounting she might show up anyway to try to force a grand farewell despite her current ignominy,” the aide told the Mail. “Anyone would be enormously embarrassed to do that, but this is Kimberly.”Staffers at the US Embassy in Athens said her departure is “unprecedented.”“We have never seen such a violent beheading of the mission. Usually, these push-outs happen quietly. This was abrupt,” a staffer told the outlet.“There is no semblance of shock, rather relief that she’s been fired. She was horrible and mean and spoke down to just about everybody,” another staffer said. “She simply wouldn’t listen to anyone, even the most experienced career diplomats surrounding her.”A Wall Street Journal report accused Guilfoyle of demanding $100,000 from MAGA donor Eric Deters in exchange for access with the Trump administration. Guilfoyle did not accept the allegations and said she will clear her name of it as she remains a supporter of President Trump. “Serving as the United States Ambassador to Greece has been the honor of a lifetime,” she wrote. “From my first day as Ambassador, I have worked tirelessly to advance President Trump’s America First agenda, strengthen our strategic alliance with Greece, and deliver meaningful victories for the American people.“
