US career diplomat Julie Eadeh tipped to be next consul general in Hong Kong
Julie Eadeh, a career member of the US Senior Foreign Service and now the US consul general in Istanbul, is expected to take over the position from
Gregory May, according to a source familiar with the matter.
A second source said Eadeh's 'name' had been 'presented to the relevant Chinese authorities'.
'Now she is waiting for the green light from Beijing,' the source said.
Eadeh was the political section chief at the US consulate in Hong Kong and Macau during the 2019 turmoil.
