Michael Polt is perhaps the worst Ambassador on Condy's roster. He is bluntly anti-Serbian and does not miss an opportunity to demonstrate this.
For example, in a visit to Podgorica scout camp where this photo was taken, he engaged in political talk with children that would constitue as a criminal offense in The United States, because he insulted children on a racial basis.
Because Polt is a career diplomat, it is not likely that he voices his personal opinions. He voices the official American policy toward Serbia, albeit in a very non-diplomatic way. Probably he is not the sharpest tool in a drawer.
Polt is showing DoS true colors to Serbs. It is useful for Serbs but embarrasing for the United States. People like Polt should have no place in diplomatic service.
