The US government recalls diplomats stationed in multiple countries, all of whom assumed their positions during the Biden administration.

On the 22nd local time, US government officials revealed that the US government is recalling nearly 30 ambassadors and senior diplomats serving in other positions abroad. The recalled personnel mainly come from US diplomatic institutions in Africa and Asia, and all took office during the Biden administration. A US official stated that the heads of diplomatic missions in at least 29 countries received notifications last week that their terms will end in January 2026. The US Department of State declined to comment on the specific number of those affected or the names of the ambassadors. Some comments have pointed out that this event has sparked concerns among some US lawmakers and the American Foreign Service Association.
