US President-elect Donald Trump has nominated businessman Warren Stevens for the position of US ambassador to Great Britain.
“Warren has always dreamed of serving the United States full-time,” Trump said in a statement on Truth Social. “I am thrilled that he will now have this opportunity as the top diplomat representing the United States to one of America’s most valued and beloved allies.”
Stephens, who is CEO of private equity bank Stephens Inc, has donated millions to Trump’s re-election campaign this year.
If his nomination is successful, Stevens will help preserve the so-called “special relationship” between the US and Britain.
