Pete Hoekstra, the US ambassador to the Netherlands, on Thursday visiteda Dutch cemetery where members of an elite Nazi unit intricatelyinvolved in the Holocaust are buried.

It's unclear if Hoekstra was aware members of the Waffen SS, the elite Nazi unit, are buried at the cemetery.

Trump tapped Hoekstra to be the US ambassador to the Netherlands in 2017.

His tenure got off to a rocky start due to anti-Muslim comments he made regarding the Netherlands back in 2015.

The Netherlands: Dutch PM criticized after calling out 'white sipping elites' for not giving Trump a fair chance

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte faced criticism on Sunday after making comments about what he called "white wine sipping elites in Amsterdam" who are not giving US President Donald Trump a fair chance. Rutte made these comments during an appearance on Buitenhof, a weekly TV show focused on Dutch politics that aired on Sunday.  

Note Almere-Digest: Strange comments by Dutch PM, specially after the US Trump administration downgraded the diplomatic status of the  European Union’s delegation to the United States last year without making a formal announcement or informing the bloc about the change. The European Union’s demotion from a member state to an international organization became clear at the funeral of President George Bush, when Mr.O’Sullivan’s name was not called in the expected order, dictated by diplomatic protocols.Donald Trump certainly is not a friend of the EU, or the Netherlands, a Member State of the European Union. The Dutch PM "must have lost his "marbles" in making these comments.
