Retired diplomat Hill is Biden’s choice for envoy to Serbia

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden says he intends to nominate longtime diplomat Christopher Hill to be ambassador to Serbia. Hill retired from the foreign service in 2010 after serving as ambassador to Iraq. During his career, he helped negotiate a peace settlement in 1995 to put an end to the 3 1/2-year Bosnian War and was head of the U.S. delegation in 2003 to six-party talks aimed at trying to persuade North Korea to give up its nuclear program. Hill was the American ambassador to Macedonia, Poland and South Korea as well as special envoy to Kosovo. The post requires Senate confirmation.
