Ivana Trump as diplomat? Czech leader hopes so

None

Czech President Milos Zeman has called US President-elect Donald Trump's former wife, Ivana, to thank her for her "courage" and interest to become the new US ambassador to Prague. Ivana Trump is of Czech origin.

  

Zeman was among several European leaders, including Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who endorsed Trump during the campaign. In a Wednesday statement, Zeman said he's pleased with the possibilty of Ivana Trump's appointment to ambassador because "the US cannot send a better ambassador to Prague" than Trump's first wife.

 

Zeman said he shared Trump's views of migration and the fight against the Islamic terrorism.
