  "account": "The White House has requested that US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle resign, according to a briefing by White House press secretary Katie Zacharia. Guilfoyle, who has been a valuable asset to the team, is wished well by the administration. President Donald Trump indicated on Monday that he was contemplating firing Guilfoyle, stating that they are not content. Concerns have been raised by US lawmakers regarding allegations that Guilfoyle may have threatened to utilize US influence to undermine the Greek government. The White House did not provide immediate comment on the request to the embassy in Athens, Greece. As a key NATO ally, Greece has provided crucial military facilities to maintain security in the Eastern Mediterranean and leads an EU maritime mission to protect commercial shipping in the Red Sea.",
