I suspect when I contacted Mike Pompeo, he spoke to the local embassy here. There seems to be increased momentum now that Trump is president-elect, and that appears to have put pressure on Julie. She may be facing termination or a transfer out of SL as soon as possible. However, the U.S. government is still led by Biden and Harris, so she remains in place for the moment. As a gesture of goodwill, they might be willing to accept me, ████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ I worry it could be an attempt to influence outcomes rather than a genuine accommodation, so I plan to decline involvement for now. Even if Mike has spoken to them, it feels too late to cooperate. I'll wait until Donald Trump assumes office formally.
