Abstract
This paper studies the structure of the Mordell--Weil groups of semiabelian varieties over algebraic extensions of number fields whose absolute Galois group is finitely generated, with particular emphasis on that generated by a single element. A probabilistic argument using the Haar measure on the absolute Galois group of a number field shows that almost all such fields are Kummer-faithful, i.e., the Mordell--Weil group of any semiabelian variety over any finite extension of such a field has trivial divisible part. This result implies that there exists a Kummer-faithful field algebraic over a number field whose absolute Galois group is abelian.
