U.S. EMBASSY speaks DUTCH! #1

How well does U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra speak Dutch?
And what about the other staff members of the U.S. Embassy in the Netherlands?
Time to test their level of Dutch...
... and ask if they know more about Berend Botje's whereabouts!

    Don't forget about the Berend Botjes euthenised against their will. It would be very brave to do so, but could we see some questions about Hoekstra's view on Dutch journalists in part II? The day Dutch journalists relentlessly grilled Hoekstra about mr. Voetberg's comment above was basically the last day they did their work properly.

    Really depends on the situation I think. Some diplomatic personnel might have a posting in the Netherlands for 3 months, go home for a couple weeks, then have a 6 month posting in Germany, go home for 2 months, then have a 2 month posting in South Korea etc. And they might mostly live in their diplomatic bubbles, meaning that they mostly interact with people from their native country, whether that be other diplomats, government officials back home, or people visiting the home country who are in need of assistance.

    We hebben meer Chrissen en Omars nodig! Ik kan het goed waarderen dat de ambassadeur en zijn vrouw meedoen :)

    Eigenlijk is het best wel gek dat de Nederlandse ambassadeur van de Verenigde Staten zo slecht Nederlands spreekt. Ik kan mij niet voorstellen dat wij ambassadeurs sturen die zo slecht de lokale taal beheersen.

    Wel Hoekstra spreekt Nederlands beter dan heel veel ambassadeurs voor hem. Nu nog wat meer ' alignment met Nederland' qua politiek. Says Huawei-fan.

    Niet zo gek aangezien hij hier geboren is en meerdere jaren heeft gewoond. Die eerste paar jaar zijn toch bepalend voor welke klanken je kan maken als volwassene.
