The article asserts that under Donald Trump, the US has adopted a "wolf warrior" diplomacy style, similar to what China was once known for. It argues that the US now favors ambassadors who exhibit open hostility towards host countries, often lacking diplomatic experience. The article highlights Charles Kushner, the US ambassador to France, as an example. Kushner was temporarily cut off from contact with French officials after failing to appear when summoned regarding US State Department comments on the death of a far-right activist. This incident followed a previous instance where Kushner sent a substitute to a meeting after criticizing French President Macron in an op-ed. The French foreign ministry criticized Kushner's conduct and restricted his access to government members.
