Todd Philip Haskell (born 1962) is an American diplomat and career Foreign Service Officer. He has served as Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Bureau of African Affairs at the United States Department of State since 2015. In February 2017, President Donald Trump nominated Haskell for the position of United States Ambassador to the Republic of the Congo. Haskell had originally been nominated for the position by outgoing President Barack Obama in January 2017. When Trump took office, he withdrew Haskell's nomination before renominating him for the same position. The position requires confirmation by the United States Senate.

Haskell has held diplomatic posts in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (2010-2013), Johannesburg, South Africa (2006-2010), Burkina Faso (2003-2006), Mexico City (2001-2003), Tel Aviv, Israel (1996-2000), Poznań, Poland (1992-1993), the Sinai Peninsula (1990-1991), Manila, Philippines (1988-1990), and Karachi, Pakistan (1986-1988). Haskell speaks French, Spanish, and Hebrew.
