The German Ambassador’s fans came to his rescue.
Meet Martin Kobler
If you already didn’t know who he was, then it’s time you do. Martin is the German Ambassador to Pakistan and has been serving in the role since mid-2017.
And since then, he has delved into the country’s cultures and traditions like no other. Documenting everything on his Twitter account. And because of this, he has gained a lot of fans and some foes.

while in GB I had to wait some time at a checkpoint. was a bit hungry and happy to find these boys who sold cookies and soft drinks! it was a Sunday and the boys said that they go to school on the other days. I believed them as GB has a good school enrolment rate! pic.twitter.com/EiZDW0pl5G

Uff, that was an exhausting hike up the margallas to monal. Despite starting very early humidity and heat made it difficult. Proud to have made it! Didn't meet as many of you guys as usual. Come on, it's worth it, even if difficult!! pic.twitter.com/iyWtPe98p7

Clearly, the Ambassador adores the country. The Ambassador has a lot of experience under his belt. Before his stint as Pakistan’s Ambassador, he has served as a special representative for the United Nations in many different countries including Congo, Libya, and Iraq.
He has also served as an Ambassador in different places including Baghdad and Cairo.
But his enthusiasm for Pakistan, in particular, is adorable.

We wonder if he was as invested in all the countries that he has served in.
People love his love for Pakistan.
Mr.Kobler can we possibly make you an honorary Pakistani citizen? Your love for Pakistan and every thing Pakistani is very heart warming

And when Journalist Gul Bukhari tweeted her annoyance at seeing how enthusiastic the Ambassador is about his role
I think you’re behaving like a tourist, not an ambassador. https://t.co/vX8pXuC7Wl
— Gul Bukhari (@GulBukhari) July 30, 2018
People were NOT having it.

Ambassadors in the past had embraced other countries cultures. So Mam you should think twice before tweeting something like that for it can hurt another persons sentiments. Have a nice day

Everyone who promate the positive image of Pakistan irritates u 🤷🏼♀️

Even Hollywood actor Iqbal Theba spoke in favor of the Ambassador
He thinks outside the box @KoblerinPAK I think he’s doing what all Ambassadors should do. Embrace the country, find positive things & connect with the people. Hope he stays in Pakistan for a v long time

I think this is a good lesson; don’t mess with the German Ambassador. If you do, people’s opinion of you will definitely change…
You have to be a really sad and bitter person to hate on Martin kobler. I mean bitter like your saliva is vinegar
— Zarrar Khuhro (@ZarrarKhuhro) July 31, 2018
I think this is a great lesson for not just Gul Bukhari, but anyone who has an issue with the ambassador. So whatever you do, make sure you never mess with the German Ambassador publicly because his fans will definitely not let you live it down.
