Ted Malloch, Washington’s proposed new EU ambassador, shocked BBC presenters this morning when he used the swearword live on air.
The fiery diplomat also predicted the impending political collapse of the EU as President Trump continues to lay down the law.
During an interview with Pienaar’s Politics, he warned that Mr Trump will prove a rude awakening for the European Union.
The US economist took no prisoners during his live radio interview, rejecting the “baby talk and political correctness” of EU elites such as Angela Merkel, Jean-Claude Juncker and Guy Verhofstadt.
Mr Malloch, a businessman who supported Brexit, has already been proposed for the EU ambassador post by Donald Trump.
The candidate, who is a long-term friend of Mr Trump, said the US leader will not tolerate a European Union dominated by Angela Merkel’s Germany.
In an extraordinary pushback, he said that whether the EU likes it or not, Mr Trump will only deal with countries on a nation-by-nation basis.
Mr Malloch added that Britain was still a major European power post-Brexit and would be crucial in all US relations with the EU.
He also ratched up tensions with Guy Verhofstadt, the European Parliament’s Brexit negotiator, who recently called for Brussels to reject the ambassadorial appointment.
Malloch said that only America would choose American diplomats and if the EU dared to intervene, there would an “equal measure of response in Washington”.
