TRUMP ADMIN 2 DOUG COLLINS VA
amb to iceland?
President Donald Trump sent the military into Venezuela to seize the then-sitting president and he has since decided that the U.S. will takeover the Arctic island Greenland. Now, the ambassador is making alleged jokes about Iceland, but the founding NATO member nation isn't laughing.
Politico reported Thursday that the Icelandic ambassador from the U.S. has been called to explain himself to those in Reykjavík fearful that they're next after Greenland.
Billy Long, who served as the head of the IRS for 53 days before he was shifted to the ambassador post, hasn't been confirmed by the Senate, but he's already at work with the volcanic island trying to become its next "governor." Long was on the floor of Congress Wednesday night when he commented to other colleagues that Iceland would be the next state and he'd be the leader of it.
“The Ministry for Foreign Affairs has contacted the U.S. Embassy in Iceland to verify the veracity of the alleged comments,” Iceland’s foreign ministry said in a statement to the site.
“These words of Billy Long, who Donald Trump has nominated as ambassador to Iceland, may have been said in half-hearted terms, but they are insulting to Iceland and Icelanders, who have had to fight for their freedom and have always been a friend of the United States,” a petition started by Icelanders said.
They are now calling on Long to be rejected as the ambassador of the island.
