U.S. Downgraded European Union's Diplomatic Status


January 8, 2019 at 7:01 am EST By Taegan Goddard

“The Trump administration downgraded the diplomatic status of the European Union’s delegation to the United States last year without making a formal announcement or informing the bloc about the change,” the New York Times reports.

“After protest from Brussels and discussion between the European Union and the Trump administration, the reclassification of the delegation and the consequent demotion of the ambassador, David O’Sullivan, is understood to have been reversed, at least temporarily.”
