**Trader consensus against any country expelling a U.S. ambassador by year-end reflects the rarity of such escalations despite notable bilateral frictions.** In 2026, the Trump administration has recalled dozens of career diplomats to prioritize political appointees aligned with America First priorities, leaving many posts vacant or under chargés d’affaires. Recent tensions include Canadian petitions against Ambassador Pete Hoekstra and Brazilian-U.S. disputes over visas and ambassador approvals, yet Ottawa and Brasilia have shown no inclination to declare U.S. envoys persona non grata. Similar patterns appear with France, Pakistan, and others, where diplomats have been summoned or criticized but expulsions remain off the table. Historical precedent and the short remaining timeline reinforce the view that host governments prefer measured responses over outright severance of ambassadorial ties.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if any U.S. ambassador is expelled from their assigned country by the government of that country between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59: PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Any expulsion from a country where a U.S. ambassador is assigned as of the time of this market’s creation will qualify.
For the purposes of resolving this market, an official announcement that a U.S. ambassador will be or is being expelled will suffice regardless of whether or not the respective ambassador leaves the country within this market’s timeframe.
Qualifying announcements must be definitive, unambiguous, official statements issued by an authorized governmental person or entity.
Whether the ambassador resigns, is recalled, or otherwise departs voluntarily will have no bearing on the resolution of this market.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the government of the United States, including the U.S. Department of State, as well as official information from the relevant expelling government; however, an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
