>>Why do we have an EU ambassador anyway? Each EU nation already has an ambassador.
Perhaps the question should be “Why does each EU nation have an ambassador?”. They are not fully sovereign states, they have no control over their foreign policy, so why should they have separate embassies?

That, my FRiend is a very good question! Perhaps Trump can call for the ouster of European embassies.
——Why does each EU nation have an ambassador?——
The European Union is an amalgamation of soverign nations that have agreed to giveup some soverign powers and responsibilities to a common governing body that assumes some soverign duties and responsibility.
Each of the EU members is still a soverign nation. The EU was established to promote and remove internal barriers to trade.
