An investigation published by The Wall Street Journal has highlighted ethical concerns regarding US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle and her involvement in facilitating a $6 billion natural gas contract for Greek infrastructure company Aktor in Albania.

According to the report, Guilfoyle traveled to Tirana in March 2026 to meet with Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama. She was accompanied by an executive from Aktor alongside lobbyist Christos Marafatsos. A month later, Guilfoyle returned to the Albanian capital for the official signing of the energy agreement.

The report underscores potential conflicts of interest, as Marafatsos reportedly acts as an advisor to the ambassador while lobbying for private commercial energy firms across Europe. Regional officials and diplomatic representatives have not publicly commented on the allegations concerning the intersection of American diplomacy and private commercial deals.

The United States Supreme Court has permitted the Trump administration to temporarily continue deporting asylum seekers to third countries while judges evaluate the policy's legality. The decision coincides with an international media investigation led by Forbidden Stories, which revealed that at least 25,447 migrants were transferred to 28 non-native nations under confidential bilateral agreements.

According to the findings, approximately 20,000 individuals were transported by bus to Mexico, while over 5,000 were flown to third countries. Internal State Department documents and interviews indicate some deportees had previously received formal recognition that their lives would be threatened in their home countries.

Concurrently, more than a dozen United Nations human rights experts called on Washington to immediately suspend the practice, warning that migrants face elevated risks of torture and persecution in unfamiliar nations.
