Rubio backs envoy amid report of US pressure on Balkan gas, regime change

Secretary of State Marco Rubio publicly supported US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle after a WSJ report alleged she pressured Balkan states to buy US gas and hinted at US ability to change governments in Greece and Romania. The support signals Washington's backing of its envoy, but the underlying allegations, if true, could strain US relations with allies in the region. The incident is developing as it involves diplomatic fallout and potential policy implications.
