Tensions in U.S. diplomatic relations have drawn attention in recent months, most notably a Canadian parliamentary petition with over 200,000 signatures calling for the expulsion of Ambassador Pete Hoekstra over perceived interference tied to bilateral policy disputes. Similar friction has surfaced with Brazil, including a U.S. visa revocation for its ambassador, though officials there explicitly distinguished the move from any expulsion. The March 2025 U.S. expulsion of South Africa’s ambassador remains the reverse of the market’s question and has not prompted reciprocal action. Expelling a sitting U.S. ambassador constitutes a major diplomatic rupture that governments have historically avoided absent acute crises, and no such formal action has materialized through late August 2026. These developments underpin trader consensus favoring “No” by year-end while leaving room for late escalations in ongoing disputes.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if any U.S. ambassador is expelled from their assigned country by the government of that country between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59: PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Any expulsion from a country where a U.S. ambassador is assigned as of the time of this market’s creation will qualify.
For the purposes of resolving this market, an official announcement that a U.S. ambassador will be or is being expelled will suffice regardless of whether or not the respective ambassador leaves the country within this market’s timeframe.
Qualifying announcements must be definitive, unambiguous, official statements issued by an authorized governmental person or entity.
Whether the ambassador resigns, is recalled, or otherwise departs voluntarily will have no bearing on the resolution of this market.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the government of the United States, including the U.S. Department of State, as well as official information from the relevant expelling government; however, an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
