  • The Trump administration is looking at closing nearly 30 overseas embassies and consulates as it eyes significant changes to its diplomatic presence abroad, according to an internal State Department document obtained by CNN.

The article from CNN, dated April 15, 2025, discusses the U.S. State Department's decision to close several embassies and consulates worldwide due to budget constraints and shifting diplomatic priorities. The closures, which will affect locations in Europe, Asia, and Africa, are part of a broader strategy to reallocate resources to regions deemed more critical to U.S. national interests. The move has sparked concerns among affected countries and local staff, with some fearing a reduction in diplomatic engagement and support. The State Department has assured that it will work to minimize disruptions and maintain essential services, while also emphasizing the need for fiscal responsibility and strategic focus in its operations.
