Trump Appoints Mike Waltz as New UN Ambassador Amid NSC Shake-Up

President Donald Trump has nominated former National Security Advisor Mike Waltz as the new U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations following Waltz’s ousting from the National Security Council.

President Donald Trump announced on May 1, 2025, via Truth Social that he has selected Mike Waltz to serve as the United States’ next Ambassador to the United Nations. This decision comes shortly after Waltz was removed from his role as National Security Advisor, marking a significant reshuffle within Trump’s administration. Waltz, who expressed his honor in continuing to serve the nation, had previously been involved in a controversial Signal chat leak related to military strategies against Houthi rebels in Yemen.

In the interim, Secretary of State Marco Rubio will take on the additional responsibility of National Security Advisor, a move reminiscent of when President Richard Nixon appointed Henry Kissinger to dual roles in 1973. Trump praised Waltz’s dedication to national interests, citing his military and congressional service, and expressed confidence in his ability to represent the U.S. at the UN effectively.

The announcement follows the withdrawal of Rep. Elise Stefanik from the UN ambassador nomination in March. Stefanik’s decision was influenced by the need to maintain the Republican majority in the House and to address political issues in New York. Trump had initially nominated Stefanik in November 2024, shortly after his re-election against Kamala Harris.

The reshuffling comes at a time when Trump has been vocal about his intentions to reform U.S. involvement with the United Nations, having already implemented cuts to several UN programs and expressing a desire for the organization to play a more effective role in global conflict resolution.
