To improve Haiti's prospects of becoming a non-fragile democracy and a productive international partner, economic development must be the country's number one priority.

Pls tell Jake to vet w others so I can raise. Original Message From: Mills, Cheryl D <[email protected]> To: H Sent: Thu Apr 16 06:12:35 2009 Subject: FW: For the Secretary of State visit to Haiti [PAUL COLLIER] See below.

From: Paul Collier To: Sullivan, Jacob Sent: Wed Apr 15 20:44:55 2009 Subject: Fwd: For the Secretary of State visit to Haiti

Jake this is for cheryl but I don't have her email. It is urgent - a suggestion to add ports to the secretary's agenda for her meeting with Preval tomorrow. Vital that he does not slide off fixing the port. More below. Paul

Begin forwarded message: From: "Jean-Louis Warnholz" Date: 16 April 2009 01:31:16 BST To: "Paul Collier' Subject: For the Secretary of State visit to Haiti I enjoyed the opportunity to discuss the emerging potential that Haiti presents with the Secretary of State and former President Clinton last night. I would like to take this opportunity to make a brief suggestion for Thursday's trip to Haiti: We discussed the catalytic role the United States could play in leveraging much needed private investment in large scale job creation, for example through direct involvement of OPIC. In my report I pointed out that the port in Portau-Prince is the most expensive port in the Caribbean and recommended the opening of new private ports. Ports remain a critical bottleneck to a job creation strategy both in garment manufacturing and agriculture. They also play a pivotal role in ensuring that some of the complementary imports necessary for the proposed road construction projects can enter the country both in the required quantities and in a cost-effective and timely manner. Elsewhere I have argued that spiraling prices in construction booms often mean that available funds only go half way to the finishing line. The Haitian authorities have already made inroads in addressing some of these inefficiencies and stand ready to do more. In fact, Prime Minister Pierre-Louis noted in the letter to investors which was presented at the meeting with UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758402 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758402 Date: 06/30/2015

Charles Rangel and garment entrepreneurs on Monday, that "ISPS certification of port facilities and alleviation of customs procedures" are in progress. The meetings tomorrow may present an opportunity to emphasize once again how central well-functioning, competitive ports are to attract foreign investors as part of the HOPEI! window and to put the right transport infrastructure in place.

i like virtually everything in the two-pager, and I do agree with Tom on the notion of elevating the "national interest" and security elements of this, both because those have become part of her "brand," and also to help flesh it out in a way that both gives it the widest reach, and also protects it from attack. some ways to consider doing that might be to just ensure that the overarching description of it "call out" the national interest/security reasoning at work - something like "America has the opportunity and the responsibility to lead in the creation of a network of principled partnerships that will serve our national interest, enhance our security and build the capacity of people and nations to solve global problems and give everyone more power to reach their potential." (i inserted "network" of principled partnerships because i think it kind of alludes to both the diversity of the kinds of partnerships as well as to the influence of technology on building them...not a "must have" but just a thought....in the same vein, i don't know whether there might be an advantage in alluding to a network of "pragmatic and principled partnerships" or "practical and principled partnerships" just to ensure it's got that pragmatism aspect of it sharply inserted).

I like the substance and I might consider if there are ways to communicate, or more strongly affirm, some elements that would be important for audiences to hear, including that this is an approach of leadership, self-interest, and values. The values I mean are things like security, stability and building opportunity. Those pieces are in here, but the notion should be clear that we are not ceding leadership, we are leading by building alliances and partnerships. And we will always stand for what is right and the right to defend ourselves and our allies, but we are fighting as we always have for shared values. Make sense? Tom

I received call today from Bishop Schol and David Young.... The worlwild Conference of Catholic Bishops are in town and they're seeking an audience... Very late notice I told them BUT they have about a hundred here from all over the globe and they are our Methodists... I had the Bishop send me the details and I contact number. Attached below. I left it very vague and told them you may not even be town and how extremely busy you are...

It was good to talk with you again this morning. I am grateful for your willingness to help the Council of Bishops. The following are dates and times that are available:

Sunday, May 3, 6:00 PM dinner - This is the opening dinner for the Council in which all of the bishops will be present. It will be at the American University Katzman Arts Center (right on the Nebraska Circle).

Wednesday, May 6, 6:00 PM dinner - Again all of the bishops will be present. This dinner will be at the Bethesda Hyatt, 7400 Wisconsin Avenue.

Another option is on Tuesday, May 6, any time between 2:00 and 4 PM with a group of bishops who are available to come to the State Department.

Also a group of bishops are available for breakfast or lunch Tuesday through Thursday.

Our first hope is either the Sunday or Wednesday for dinner.

You or someone on behalf of Secretary Clinton can call me at know how the initial call went.

If you could call or email me today to let me

Keep the faith!

John R. Schol, Bishop The United Methodist Church Washington, DC Area Baltimore-Washington Conference

From: David and Diane Weisz Young [mailto Sent: Friday, May 01, 2009 8:55 PM To: Burns Strider; Bishop John R. Schol Cc: Diane and Dave Weisz Young; David Young (on Hill) Subject: Visit of worldwide United Methodist Bishops -- possible to arrange a meeting with Hillary?

John and Burns, Great talking to you both this evening.

Burns, the United Methodist Bishops from around the world are coming to the Washington area for a weeklong gathering of bishops. Bishop John is host and arranging their schedule. John can tell you more details ... it would be wonderful if a time could be found sometime during the week (Sunday-Friday) for Hillary to meet with the entire group of bishops (around 100 total) or at least the leaders of the African bishops (perhaps a group of 10 or so).

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758447 Date: 06/30/2015

John notes that the group can be flexible and accomodate Hillary's busy schedule. He suggests that there are a couple of ideal evening opportunities where all the bishops will be present: this Sunday evening at 6 pm at American University's Arts Center, or Wednesday at 6 pm at the Hyatt in Bethesda. There also is a Tuesday evening gathering and reception with just the African bishops -- 7 pm onwards at AP Shaw UMC in SE DC.

If it is not possible for her to go to the bishops, I wonder whether it might be possible for a smaller group (eg, John, the African bishops and a couple others) to come to the State Department for a meeting in the Secretary's suite or conference room on the 7th floor. The Secretary obviously has a very busy schedule, but it might well be possible to find 20-30 minutes sometime during the week at the Department. (I haven't yet done so, but I will check the State Dept website and see what her announced travel schedule is.)

I am happy to help however I can, though it probably is easiest if you coordinate directly. Feel free to copy me at the above emails if I can be helpful. Here are your cell numbers: Bishop John's is Burns's is

God's blessings to you both, David

Do you know anything about this--from any angle? Original Message From: Burns Strider To: H Sent: Mon May 04 09:36:17 2009 Subject: Some intel for you... This is about Sri Lankan Govt and the Tigers... I have a good source. This was shared to me at my and Karen's Derby Party yesterday (can you believe the 50 to 1 odds winner?). There was a meeting held with Geitner asked for and led by IMF... They told him you were intruding into his domain by ordering/telling IMF to suspend funding to Sri Lakan Govt. My take is that the people on the ground both with World Bank and IMF believe the Tigers need to be completely defeated and any collateral damage inflicted on private people by SL govt in process is ok... They also believe Tigers are better at propaganda than SL govt... I have no idea what reality is... I know all about the conflict because there's been so much written over time but no idea of reality on ground.

My point is that IMF/World Bank is hoping to get Geitner to intervene and they recently played to his sense of who is US point person on IMF... So, that's what I know. I'll keep my ears open.

Netanyahu's Speech for Peace: Is Anyone Listening?

AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has determined "it made no sense" to press the U.S. for assistance, a senior Israeli official said.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759019 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759019 Date: 06/30/2015

I really don't get it. On June 14, less than a month after his meeting with President Obama, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave one of the most comprehensive, thoughtful and highly personal speeches supporting the Israeli-Palestinian peace process of any Israeli prime minister in recent years, perhaps ever.

One would have thought his speech would have been big news in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere. Mr. Netanyahu for the first time clearly stated he would support a two-state solution, albeit with understandable requirements to guarantee Israel's security, despite leaving a different impression during last month's U.S. visit.

Yet, the reaction of governments and media in the U.S. and Europe was the functional equivalent of a tree falling in the forest with no one listening. Where it was covered, the writing emphasized the cynical and focused on the half-empty, rather than the half-full, glass.

So let's take a closer look at what could turn out to be a very significant, game-changing speech. It can be divided, essentially, into four parts: personal, historic, diplomatic and economic.

The personal aspect of the speech deals with the issue of peace. At one point, Mr. Netanyahu spoke directly to the Palestinian people: "We want to live with you in peace, as good neighbors. We want our children and your children to never again experience war: that parents, brothers and sisters will never again know the agony of losing loved ones in battle; that our children will be able to dream of a better future and realize that dream; and that together we will invest our energies in plowshares and pruning hooks, not swords and spears."

And then he reminded Palestinians that for him and his family, peace and war are quite personal: "I know the face of war. 1 have experienced battle. I lost close friends. I lost a brother. I have seen the pain of bereaved families. I do not want war. No one in Israel wants war."

Mr. Netanyahu also spent time in his speech on history, but not to relitigate the ancient argument over who lived in Palestine first or for the longest time. Rather, Mr. Netanyahu explained that the "root of the conflict" has been based on a fundamental misstatement of undeniable historical facts.

Palestinians have been taught that Israel was founded largely by alien foreigners, foisted on the native Palestinians by Europeans feeling guilty over the Holocaust. That misstatement has been the central rationale for Arab and Palestinian unwillingness to publicly recognize Israel as a Jewish state.

In fact, he points out, "the attacks against us began in the 1920s," 20 years before the Holocaust. And the undeniable historical fact is that "the Jewish people and the land of Israel go back over 3,500 years" - when Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, forefathers of all Jews; David and Solomon, ancient Israel's two greatest kings; and Isaiah and Jeremiah, two of

the Jewish religion's greatest spiritual prophets, all lived in what was then Judea and Samaria, which today is called the West Bank.

"The right of the Jewish people to a state in the land of Israel does not derive from the cascade of catastrophes that befell our people," the prime minister said. "There are those who say that if the Holocaust had not occurred, the state of Israel would never have been established. But I say if the state of Israel would have been established earlier, it is the Holocaust that would not have occurred." Third, the prime minister addressed the two simple requirements for peace between Israel and the Palestinians: recognition and security.

As to the first, he put it quite simply: "A fundamental prerequisite for ending the conflict is a public, binding and unequivocal Palestinian recognition of Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people."

As to the security, it is also quite simple: Palestine must be demilitarized, as guaranteed by the international community, with open skies, no military alliances with hostile powers, and "effective security measures to prevent weapons smuggling into the territory - real monitoring, and not what occurs in Gaza today."

Once these two issues of recognition and security for Israel have been guaranteed, the rest of the difficult issues seem to come much easier: no more new settlements, with some wiggle room for the natural growth of current settlements caused by families growing; equitable treatment and assistance in placing refugees in land and homes outside of Israel (to preserve the essence of historic Israel as a Jewish state).

And on the always controversial issue of Jerusalem, Mr. Netanyahu was deftly ambiguous: "Jerusalem, the capital of Israel, must remain undivided, with continued religious freedom for all faiths." That does not seem to exclude Palestinian de facto control over certain parts of Jerusalem and certainly over their holy places.

Finally, the prime minister expressed a clear and concrete vision of economic prosperity for Palestinians in partnership with Israel. Indeed, he stated that such economic prosperity can come even before a final peace agreement is reached.

"An economic peace is not a substitute for a political peace but an important element in achieving it. Together we can undertake projects that overcome the scarcities of our region, like water desalination, or maximize its advantages, like developing solar energy, and exploiting our geographic location by laying gas and petroleum lines and establishing transportation links between Asia, Africa and Europe....

"Together we can develop industrial areas that will generate thousands of jobs and develop tourist sites that will attract millions of visitors eager to walk in the footsteps of history - in Nazareth and in Bethlehem, around the walls of Jericho and the walls of Jerusalem, on the banks of the Sea of Galilee, and the baptismal site on the banks of the Jordan."

Who cannot be moved by these words? Perhaps Mr. Netanyahu has it right - a new sequencing of the peace process: First, economic partnership and prosperity between Israelis and Palestinians; and then peace, not the other way around.

It could not have been by accident that Mr. Netanyahu chose to deliver his remarkable speech at the Begin-Sadat Center at Bar-Ilan University. It was slightly more than 30 years ago, on March 26, 1979, that Prime Minister Menachem Begin, as the leader of the right-wing Likud or "Consolidation" Party, joined with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and signed a historic peace agreement between Israel and Egypt.

Now another man of the right, another Likud prime minister some three decades later, seems poised to make the lasting peace between Israel and Palestinians that has so long eluded his predecessors. One wonders whether Mr. Netanyahu might also be thinking: If Richard Nixon could go to China because of a base on the right that trusted him, then I can bring peace and prosperity between Israelis and Palestinians.

Let's hope - and pray - that he is right.

I would like to suggest one overarching strategy for success. Please do push hard on the donors (USAID included!) to pool the donor resources into one, at most two, multilateral funding streams. Certainly the World Bank should be the main spigot, and IFAD possibly a second. By pooling the resources, we'll cut down BY YEARS on the delays, donor negotiations, further talk, report writing, expert trips, etc., etc., which are now the biggest single threat to success of the initiative. I look forward to a few minutes by phone or in person to offer some tips coming from long years of experience in this sphere. This can be a real historic path-breaker, if it's not swallowed in the agencies! Warm regards and kudos! Jeff Sachs

Thx for sending. I've forwarded to Jake Sullivan in my office to follow up. Original Message From: Jeffrey L Farrow To: H Sent: Fri Jul 10 18:36:45 2009 Subject: Palau offended by US positions Below is the statement of very impressive Palau reps at the end of a session of required meetings on the next phase of free association aid. FYI only, the Palauans were insulted by the nature and depth of the response to their proposal as well as the content and the overall approach. They are even privately questioning the relationship. (This hasn't affected their intent to take the Uighurs.) I will send a few further thoughts. At the conclusion of yesterday's meeting, the Palau delegation caucused to discuss its reaction to the response of the United States delegation to the proposals that it made in June in Washington D.C., and expanded upon in subsequent communications.

While the Palau delegation has agreed to respond to certain additional questions raised by the United States delegation on specific elements of the Palau proposal, and further has agreed to participate in certain working groups on specific issues, the Palau delegation was deeply disappointed with the response of the United States delegation. The United States delegation did not seriously respond, as required by the Compact, to the operational requirements of the Government of Palau or to Palau's comprehensive and considered plans to achieve economic advancement and selfsufficiency.

In light of the foregoing, the Palau delegation has determined that it must now return to Palau to discuss with President Toribiong the next steps that Palau needs to take regarding the Compact. Thank you.

Working together to advance security and prosperity for the American and Russian people is the focus of our effort to reset relations.

Thx. I meant budget question to refer to overall budget. Can you get that for me? Original Message From: Philippe Reines To: H Sent: Sun Jul 2607:43:53 2009 Subject: Re: Questions o Is the 50k figure State and AID? YES [U/S Kennedy & Ops]

o Re Sudan: how do you pronounce Abyei? What is % and dollar increase in 2010 budget for ops and aid? Per the VoA pronunciation guide: ab-YAY (Ops). The FY09 base level for Sudan assistance programs is $327m vs $403m in FY10- mostly related to infrastructure and election/referendum requirements. This does NOT include several hundred million dollars of food aid and other humanitarian assistance that is also provided yearly (close to $400m on top of numbers below) a year. Also in addition is funding for UN peacekeeping missions- also nearly $200m a year. [D(L)]

o I don't understand the answer to the prostitution policy question. What's the simplest way to say it? [Per D(L): Because of the politics of health care reform on the Hill, there is great sensitivity about addressing the substance of these issues at this time.] 0: Under the previous Administration organizations receiving HIV\AIDs funds from the U.S. Government were required to have a policy explicitly opposing prostitution and sex trafficking. Is that going to continue to be the policy of this Administration? A: This matter has been the subject of litigation - outside groups have sued both USAID and the HHS over the policy and we recently notified the Court that we needed additional time to review the policy. That review is underway; no final decisions have been made.

You did a great job on Meet the Press. The only thing I would add is when they ask you about the relationship b/w you and the White House you can say not only that you are the diplomat in chief and the implementer, but also the architect of the strategies we need actually to achieve the objectives and the visions that the President lays out. I hope you saw the piece by Sid Kaplan in Slate that says you and the President are closer than any administration in recent memory. I hope you get at least a tiny piece of Sunday to yourself! AMS

Just a quick note before leaving for Moscow, Rome and Central Asia.

1.4(B) 1.4(D) B1

Moscow preparations are in reasonable shape. Afghan lethal transit agreement is done, and will be signed on Monday. There's also a broader statement on cooperation on counter-narcotics and reconstruction in Afghanistan. (Bakiyev has now signed the Manas agreement, which is a further boost on Afghanistan.) The Presidents will announce the bilateral commission, and your trip to Russia in the fall to launch the process with Lavrov. All in all a good measured realistic step in our effort to rebuild relations --

I'll be in Rome just for the first, "foreign policy" portion of the G8. We're working on a Leaders' statement that is likely to look a lot like last week's G8 Foreign Ministers statement on most issues, with an update on North Korea, and essentially the same, firm line on Iran. I leave Rome on July 9 with an interagency delegation for stops in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Kyrgyzstan, back in DC on July 14. Hope you had a good Fourth, and all the best, Bill

Thx for the feedback and for everything you did to make it happen. Original Message From: PIR <preines To: H Sent: Sun Jul 26 14:12:27 2009 Subject: Feedback Whenever you do something big on TV we all hear from lots of folks saying you did great. But this time is noticeably different. First, people across the spectrum - DC insiders, reporters, staff, ex-staff, friends of friends, WH folks, etc were blown away. Second, people were REALLY moved by the last segment, three people even told me they teared up. I'm guessing and hoping you hear this directly from random folks in the coming days. And I think because it's been a lousy couple of weeks for the Admin, with mixed messages and bad news, coupled with many people seeing you for the first time for an extended period talking about the job and your relationship with the President, and that combo was probably the most powerful reminder since your speech in Denver that you're in a class all your own (including the President who became enmeshed in the Gates incident) That you didn't wait for the envoy question was key, you turned it into a strength. What you said about the President and how you said it, one can't help but think how much of a team player you are and how remarkably you've adapted to the role. You were definitely on your game. You either threw a perfect game - or at least a no hitter. So this couldn't have gone better, achieved everything we needed to times 10, and comes on the heels of a great 10 days. Will be interesting to see the storyline that emanates from this. Because there was no substantive news, it'll be a focus on style - especially saving Biden.

Fact Sheet for the Media Forum for the Future

RELEASE IN FULL

The Forum for the Future is a joint initiative of the countries of the Broader Middle East and North Africa region (BMENA) and the industrialized countries of the Group of Eight (G8). It is a unique partnership between governments of the region, the G8, civil society representatives and private sector leaders to discuss and exchange ideas on how to best work together to support progress and expand opportunities for the people of the region. The Forum for the Future was launched at the Sea Island G8 Summit in the United States in June, 2004. During this summit, the G8 countries stressed their commitment to promote progress in the BMENA region and to help establish an environment conducive to an informal, flexible, open and inclusive dialogue. The first Forum for the Future was held in Rabat in December 2004, co-hosted by The Kingdom of Morocco and the United States. In preparation for the 2009 ministerial, co-chairs Morocco and Italy along with civil society partners convened three preparatory workshops across the region on: economic reform (September 26-27, Beirut, Lebanon, in partnership with the Organization for Civil Activities), political reform (October 5-6, Rabat, Morocco, in partnership with the Moroccan Organization for Human Rights), and human development (October 12-13, Doha, Qatar, in partnership with the National Human Rights Committee and the Arab Democracy Foundation). The BMENA Initiative complements the objectives outlined by President Obama in his Cairo speech and is a natural partner for making progress in key areas — notably economic opportunity, education, good governance, human rights, and women's empowerment. BMENA's emphasis on cooperation among governments, civil society and the private sector aligns with the President's vision of partnership between the United States and countries in the region. The United States will engage with leaders from the region on issues of common interest and shared values, working together to infuse new energy into the partnership. In particular, we believe our focus should be firmly on developing a path to increasing opportunity for the youth of the region. The Broader Middle East and North Africa participants include Afghanistan, Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, West Bank and Gaza, and Yemen. The G8 countries include Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Dear Nancy-I very much want to meet and we've been trying to pin my schedule down enough to offer a date. The only times I see for me before December are Nov 21-23 or sometime in the second or third weeks of December. I'm copying Cheryl so you two can try to find a time that works. As to the names, I think they're all worth inviting w the hope they can come. Let's do it! Best, H Original Message From: Nancy Parrish To: H Sent: Fri Oct 30 10:49:00 2009 Subject: Advisory committee status and recommendations Hillary, I admire the way you handled yourself during your trip to Pakistan. It reminds me of the daunting job before you and it's potential. Successfully engaging the power of the DOS and the array of relevant external relationships on behalf of your goals will remain a central challenge. As we discussed, gathering a handful of loyal and trusted outside advisors could provide a valuable tool in this regard. Given your late October or early November target for the first meeting, I have been working with Cheryl to come up with a date. I guess given all that is going on possible dates seem to continually slip away. I would understand if, in the context of everything on your plate this advisory group is just not practical. However, if you do feel that such a gathering would be helpful and want to proceed, I believe you need to step in, select the initial date or dates (with risk that it may need to change) and extend the invitations. A quick note to Mickey, Gordon, Maggie and any others you want to include. Others mentioned so far include Sandy Berger, Strobe Talbott and Elaine Kamarck. For at least the first gathering, you may want to consider two parts. A dinner, breakfast or other informal event plus a more structured meeting would create the opportunity for informal discussion and time for reflection. In the event you do want to move forward, I am happy to assist in any way that may be useful. Please know that I in no way want to push this beyond where you may want to go. Nancy

Tom and Craig-I spoke w Secretary Solis and thanked her for going to Honduras. She is eager for your briefing and advice when you meet w her today. And it is very important that Craig is going w her to guide her thru this process. Oscar Arias told me he is very worried about whether the agreement will be implemented and is meeting w the leading Presidential candidate this week to urge that he produce his party's 55 votes for restitution. I also spoke w Insulza who is focussed on the elections which I told him we would fully support. Is there more we should be doing? Again, thanks for all your great work and good luck in the effort to get this across the finish line. Best, HRC

The Transatlantic Economic Council was Chancellor Angela Merkel's major initiative when Germany held the EU presidency in 2007. She got President George W. Bush to agree to its formation. But the council now languishes. Has the US appointed its representative? The council is more about coordinating regulatory matters than trade, by the way. Raising Merkel's project and reinvigorating it would undoubtedly be well received. Below is an article from Europolitics Daily from January 2009 on the council. State could work this up.

than with the Transatlantic Economic Council (TEC), the body German Chancellor Angela Merkel persuaded President George Bush to set up in April 2007 to remove regulatory barriers to transatlantic trade. STILL NO TEC CHAIR Obama has been widely praised for moving quickly, by comparison to previous new presidents, to nominate his new administration. Yet his spokesman told Europolitics he has still not appointed the future co-chair of the TEC. In the interim, Michelle O'Neill, Deputy Undersecretary at the Department of Commerce, has been tasked with ensuring continuity. The EU Co-Chair is Commission Vice-President Gunter Verheugen. Given that dozens of nominations have already been announced, this may be a sign that among his long list of priorities, the TEC, the most significant EU-US initiative to emerge in recent years, will not feature highly. It should be noted that when Obama was chair of the Senate Subcommittee on Europe, from 2007 to 2008, he did not organise a single hearing, something on which his then rival in the presidential campaign, Senator Hillary Clinton, tried - and failed - to score political points. The Democrats, who have grown more protectionist-minded on trade, now have a commanding majority in both the US Senate and House of Representatives. Obama, himself a Democrat, is being careful to cultivate good relations with them and not take for granted their support, which he desperately needs to push through his ambitious economic policy agenda. It was Congress that in 2007 introduced the 100% rule, requiring all US-bound containers leaving European ports to be scanned before being loaded onto the departing ship. This has been a thorn in the EU's side ever since and now features on the TEC agenda. In the current climate, Congress is unlikely to be clamouring to scrap the rule and may not even wish to extend the 2012 implementation deadline as the EU is asking. Anxious not to burn bridges, Obama could well go along with Congress in order to avoid an unnecessary fight. AMERICANS NOT SO HOT ON TRADE Congress' protectionism does not magically appear in a vacuum. It is reflective of mounting fears among the US public about the impact free trade has on US jobs. Their fears are not entirely groundless. American manufacturing jobs are indeed going overseas - notably to India and China. And being unemployed in the US is a more perilous predicament than in Europe because government unemployment benefits are less generous and more temporary. Moreover, most Americans, unlike Europeans, have their health care paid for by their employer so if they lose their job they also lose their health care. Hardly surprising, therefore, that only 59% of Americans think trade is good for their country, compared to 78% of French and British, 80% of Czechs and 85% of Germans, a Pew Research Centre survey has shown. This bearish sentiment has a knock-on effect on all trade dossiers. For example, it makes Congress less amenable to scrapping the law requiring US airlines to be in 'actual control' of US citizens - something the EU is urging in the current Open Sky II aviation liberalisation talks. It makes US lawmakers more likely to take action to prevent European companies winning lucrative US defence contracts. This is happening already with the epic tussle between Boeing and Airbus over the Pentagon's US$35 billion refuelling tanker contract (see separate article). EU officials are clinging to the hope that Obama, as president, will adopt a more global outlook and drag the Democratic Congress along with him rather than the other way around. A VICTIM OF DULLNESS? The TEC, despite having failed to deliver as much as many hoped for, remains an extremely useful tool. By emphasising regulatory rather than tariff barriers, it shows an understanding of where the real problems lie in today's trading environment. The EU and the US could use the TEC to create a global standard in hugely important sectors, such as toys and food. "The alternative," as Dan Hamilton, director of the Centre for Transatlantic Relations at Johns Hopkins University in Washington notes, "is that we end up with Chinese standards". Yet the TEC has one weakness no one should underestimate: its dullness. Discussing highly technical regulatory divergences, such as whether to wash chickens in chlorine or water, may have been Chancellor Merkel's cup of tea but French President Nicolas Sarkozy showed little interest in it during the French EU Presidency. Without strong impetus from someone on Obama's team who has the power to make things happen, the TEC - like an old soldier - might not actually die but just fade away. EU-US economy While there is much talk about the rising power of China and India, the transatlantic economy still far outstrips the rest of the world in size and wealth. The EU27 and the US accounted for nearly 57% of world gross domestic product in 2007, while the transatlantic economy made up 47% of world exports and 52% of world imports. The net worth per household in the US is US$565,000, in France US$518,000, in the U.K. US$599,000, compared to just US$18,000 in China, US$31,000 in Russia and US$44,000 Brazil.

And I think it is making the rest of your job much tougher because the delay in the decision is looking Carterlike to US adversaries — any decision is better than no decision. But all roads likely lead to Iran and perhaps Pakistan, rest is secondary at this point. That's my view for what it's worth. Take care.

Melanne--Your travels bring back so many wonderful memories of all we've done together over the last 17 years. When we are both back, we need to find time for discussing the projects--like cook stoves--that we want to do or facilitate. Until then, safe travels. H Original Message From: Verveer, Melanne S To: H Sent: Sun Nov 08 00:36:57 2009 Subject: I know you're embarked on another big trip and wish you well. I met with Reema Navatany, Ela Bhatt's right hand, whom you know. She sends her greetings and underscored again what you mean to them. SEWA is on the cutting edge of so many exciting developments. We had a great conversation on many things, including how much women in the developing world can and must do to address climate change and drive low tech green industries. In the villages, I could feel the pollution in my eyes and throat -- so much needs to be done at the local level. Much pollution is produced because of the way women cook, etc. When I get back, will work up some ideas on this. Delhi's been enshrouded in smog for the last couple days. The SEWA project I visited 2 hours outside of Delhi was so impressive. Women who were among the poorst of the poor had become businesswomen capable of traveling to London and Brussels to negotiate contracts with companies for their embroidery etc We're going to have SEWA play a key role in the Vital Voices summit that you announced that will take place here next year. Maria Otero was still here when - arrived so she joined me for the SEWA mtgs. I also went to one of Rushira Gupta's antitrafficking projects. You know her as we've been working with her thru WH years. She got the global citizens award at CGI this year. I don't think I've seen worse conditions than what she's trying to address. In Mumbai we launched an anti- trafficking campaign with Bollywood which brought in new players to the cause. Tomw, I will be speaking on this year's World Economic Forum Gender Gap report for India. There's so much potential for India's economic growth -- as the WEF points out --- if they'd tap women's potential here. India is last of the BRIC countries on most indicators and comes out poorly generally. Will be raising some of these issues with govt in Dialogue mtgs. Anyway, I thought of you so much everywhere I went. I'm so happy to be part of your legacy on these issues. Travel well.

Sid, Could you please pass the following to HRC. Thanks. Joe Dear Madame Secretary, When we last spoke at the Corporate Council on Africa you were kind enough to invite me to pay a call on you when in DC. As it turns out, I will be in Washington for most of next week, arriving the afternoon of the 16th and returning to Santa Fe the evening of the 20th ( the return is flexible if you were available to see me over the weekend.) I realize that you are traveling this week and possibly into next, but I wanted to reach out to you. As I wrote to you earlier, I am a director for Symbion Power and may soon assume more direct responsibility for all of Africa as Symbion expands there from its current operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Symbion's competitive advantage is its reliance on local partnering and human capacity development in the execution of its projects. Its success in the most difficult and dangerous environments has been very impressive, as the four minute video that Sid gave to you on my behalf demonstrates. We now want to bring that business model and philosophy to Africa where the social entrepreneurship and the development of skilled labor is imperative for Africa's long term economic prospects, as you have so forcefully articulated in past comments. I am very enthusiastic about Symbion. It is one or the very few American companies outside the petroleum sector willing to establish itself and to

Pls be sure I do letter to his wife and my friend, Ronnie and add her to call list. Original Message From: Abedin, Huma To: H Sent: Mon Nov 09 17:20:48 2009 Subject: Samual heyman November 09, 2009 Samuel J. Heyman, who stood out as a corporate raider who preferred to hold on to companies he bought and run them rather that sell them for a quick profit, died Sunday at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan. He was 70. Mr. Heyman's death was confirmed by his wife, Ronnie, who said he had died after complications from open heart surgery. Mr. Heyman was most recently chairman of the GAF Corporation, a manufacturer of roofing materials, and a chemical company that was spun off from GAF, called International Specialty Products. Both companies are based in Wayne, N.J. A group led by Mr. Heyman bought GAF in 1983 and took it private in 1987 after the stock market crashed. He later spun off GAF's chemical business into a separate company, I.S.P. During that period, corporate raiders tended to buy companies, cut operational costs and then sell them at a profit. But after Mr. Heyman won a battle with GAF's management for control of the company, he told The New York Times: "There is a very strong potential in chemicals, and we plan to make them grow." Mr. Heyman, who was also a lawyer, had diverse business holdings, including Heyman Properties, which owns shopping malls in the Northeast and which grew out of a business he had inherited from his father. "He was extremely methodical. There was a rhyme and reason to everything he did," said Leon Black, the chairman of Apollo Management, a private equity firm, and a longtime friend who was once Mr. Heyman's investment banker. Mr. Black added: "He combined a strong legal background with a strong analytical business strength, and he was a fierce negotiator. But what really made Sam kick was that he was a builder. It was all about building, whether it was his companies, his real estate, his art collection or his family." Mr. Heyman was born March 1, 1939, in Danbury, Conn., to Annette and Lazarus Heyman. His father was a real estate developer. After graduating from Yale in 1960 and Harvard Law School in 1964, Mr. Heyman went to work in the Justice Department under Robert F. Kennedy and served as chief assistant United States attorney for Connecticut. He had to cut that career short when his father needed him to take over the real estate development business. Mr. Heyman made his biggest mark in the 1983 battle for GAF. A group of shareholders led by Mr. Heyman became frustrated by management's resistance to selling some of its biggest assets, including the chemicals business.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760283 Date: 06/30/2015

Mr. Heyman waged an aggressive campaign against the company's chairman and ultimately forced his removal through a shareholder vote - a rare victory for shareholders during a time when executives of public companies were considered virtually untouchable. Once Mr. Heyman took control of GAF, he reversed course and held on to the chemicals business, ultimately making it a big contributor to the company's profit. He also moved quickly to cut costs and revamp the business, saying at the time that he was an "impatient man. When I see a place where money can be saved, I don't waste time." Mr. Heyman also gave away money. In 1999, he founded the Partnership for Public Service, which provides fellowships to encourage students to pursue careers in public service. For his charity work, Mr. Heyman won the President's Citizens Award in 2008. His other philanthropic interests included the establishment of the Samuel and Ronnie Heyman Center on Corporate Governance at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. He and his wife also collected art. Among their holdings are works by Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollock. In addition to his wife, the former Ronnie Feuerstein, Mr. Heyman is survived by his mother, Annette Heyman of Palm Beach, Fla.; four children, Lazarus Heyman, Eleanor Propp, Jennifer Millstone and Elizabeth Winter; and nine grandchildren.

By the way I just returned from Angola. Your stop there was a big hit. I found Luanda to be fascinating and much different from much of Africa. I also found the women to be much more overtly powerful in their own right and not exercising that power through their husbands. How refreshing.

When I gave my ambassadorial farewell address in Gabon in 1995 I made a point of saying that if I were the God of development assistance I would do only one thing: give all the money to the women and then sit back and watch them drive African economies forward.

That's quite the match--Murdochs v Mandelson. Original Message From: sbwhoeop To: H Sent: Thu Nov 12 08:51:40 2009 Subject: FYI: Murdoch makes his move to Cameron. Attack on BBC to follow. Sid The Independent November 12, 2009 Has Cameron done a deal with Murdoch? By Andy McSmith

Lord Mandelson's attack shines spotlight on Tory leader's links with media mogul David Cameron has been accused of making a "contract" with Britain's biggest media company to trade political support before an election for government favours afterwards if the Tories win. The accusation was levelled yesterday by the Business Secretary Peter Mande!son, who is increasingly the public face of Gordon Brown's government. Ministers are angry at the campaign that The Sun has run against the Prime Minister all this week over the spelling mistakes in a letter Mr Brown sent to the mother of a young soldier killed in Afghanistan. They suspect that the Conservative Party has been tailoring its policies on media regulation and the BBC to suit the commercial interests of News International, which owns The Sun, and that the paper's aggressive support for the Tories is a pay-off that could spread to other parts of the mass media. Examples of the apparent tie-in between what News International's boss, James Murdoch, wants, and what David Cameron is ready to promise include the recent decision by the Conservatives to abandon the idea of "top slicing" the BBC licence fee. It had been proposed that part of the money paid to the BBC would be siphoned off to help regional television companies meet the threat from the Internet. But this would also have helped them compete more effectively against Sky News, which is part of the Murdoch media empire. When the policy was abandoned in September, Jeremy Hunt, the shadow Culture Secretary, said that it was because enacting it might make the commercial television companies "focus not on attracting viewers but on attracting subsidies". There was no gain for the BBC in the climbdown, because David Cameron had already said that the Tories will freeze the licence fee. What it will mean is that the BBC's income will be capped, without the regional television companies seeing any government help, which will strengthen the market position of Britain's only satellite television company, Sky. "This was done for News International," a Tory insider said yesterday. "Murdoch wants Sky to go head to head with the BBC. He doesn't want the independent companies strengthened." In April 2008, James Murdoch complained bitterly about the media regulator Ofcom in his first major speech after taking over as chief executive of News Corporation in Europe and Asia. The following year, David Cameron announced that a Conservative government would cut Ofcom down to size. Last summer James Murdoch attacked the "abysmal record" of the BBC Trust - the body created by Labour to over see the BBC - in a lecture he gave at the Edinburgh Festival, singling out its "total failure" to stop the BBC buying the Lonely

Planet travel guides, a takeover that Murdoch denounced as an "egregious" invasion of private enterprise by the state. Less than two months later, Jeremy Hunt promised that the Tories would abolish the Trust. In the same lecture, Murdoch complained that BBC performers like Jonathan Ross are being paid salaries that "no commercial competitor can afford". He had barely uttered the words before Ed Vaizey, a shadow media minister, promised that a Tory government would compel the BBC to publish the salaries of its top performers. Lord Mandelson alleged yesterday that the Conservatives and News International had "effectively formed a contract, over the head, incidentally, of the newspaper's editor and their readers, in which they are sort of bound to one another". Speaking to the BBC's Today programme, he added: "What The Sun can do for the Conservatives during the election is one part of the contract and, presumably, what the Conservatives can do for News International if they are elected is the other side of the bargain. But there is a wider question. When The Sun creates the news in this way, this is then followed up by Sky News, which then puts pressure on the BBC to follow suit." This was "absolutely, categorically" denied yesterday by The Sun's political editor, Tom Newton Dunn, who accused Lord Mandelson of talking "preposterous nonsense". The Sun, which supported Labour through three general elections under Tony Blair's leadership, announced that it was jumping ship on the day that Gordon Brown delivered his annual speech.to the Labour Party conference in September. Its onslaught on Gordon Brown for the mistakes made in a handwritten letter to Jacqui Janes is the most aggressive attack that the newspaper has directed at any Labour Party leader since Neil Kinnock stood down after losing the 1992 general election, a defeat for which The Sun claimed victory with the slogan "It was The Sun wot won it". But there were signs yesterday that the attack may have rebounded on The Sun. Mr Brown, who is blind in one eye, has admitted that his handwriting is bad and has apologised to Mrs Janes, whose 20-year-old son, Jamie, was killed by a makeshift bomb in Afghanistan last month. A poll yesterday for the website PoliticsHome, whose main shareholder is the Conservative Party deputy chairman Lord Ashcroft, found that 65 per cent of those polled thought that The Sun's attack was "inappropriate" compared with 23 per cent who thought it was "legitimate". The closeness of the new Tory-Sun axis is shown up by the revelation, from an inside source, that David Cameron personally consulted the editor of The Sun, Dominic Mohan, in three separate conversations before he abandoned his "cast-iron" promise to hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, now that all 27 members states of the EU have ratified it. Mr Cameron was understandably wary of how The Sun might react to the abandonment of that promise. The paper has campaigned for years against what it sees as the growth of an EU superstate. It was in an open letter to readers of The Sun that Cameron first made his guarantee, two years ago. His announcement that a referendum is off the agenda was subjected to a scathing attack in the Daily Mail, but in The Sun it was given kid-glove treatment under the headline "Cameron's crusade for UK rights". The person behind this aggressively pro-Tory policy is James Murdoch, not his father, Rupert, who created The Sun virtually from scratch in the 1970s. Rupert Murdoch claimed in an interview with Sky News Australia that he "regretted" his son's decision to turn against Gordon Brown, "who is a friend of mine", but defended it on the grounds that Brown has been a "disappointment". Yesterday, The Times, another Murdoch newspaper, announced that its veteran political editor, Phil Webster, is leaving the Commons, where he h8 been based for decades. Mr Webster is very well thought of by New Labour. His replacement, Roland Watson, was a friend of David Cameron's at Eton but has no political ties with the Tories. Tom Newton Dunn, newly appointed as The Sun's political editor, is another Old Etonian. His father, Bill, used to be a Tory MEP, but defected to the Liberal Democrats in 2000.

Safe travels. Below are my 2 cents worth on Berlin.... The Four Who Ended the Cold War Diplomacy , Europe Strobe Talbott , President, The Brookings Institution The Brookings Institution November 09, 2009 — The twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9 has become, in the minds and pronouncements of many, a celebration of Ronald Reagan's starring role in the demise of the Evil Empire. For example, a new book by Romesh Ratnesar (Tear Down This Wall: A City, a President, and the Speech that Ended the Cold War) argues that the four-word dare that Reagan hurled at Mikhail Gorbachev in June 1987 catalyzed the forces that led to collapse of the East German regime a little more than two years later. In a speech that Newt Gingrich gave on the anniversary titled, "The Victory of the Cross: How Spiritual Renewal Helped Topple the Berlin Wall," he was expected to say that Reagan's "constant moral and material support for the cause of freedom" undermined the Iron Curtain.

But the real world-historical hero of that whole episode was Mikhail Gorbachev himself. If he had lost out in 1985 to any of his rivals for the top job in the Kremlin—the Moscow or Leningrad party chiefs, for example—we'd probably still have a cold war and, quite possibly, a divided Berlin. Gorbachev, now 78, made an appearance at the commemorative ceremonies in Berlin on Monday, as did Russian President Dimitri Medvedev. Two other decisive figures were Reagan's and Gorbachev's successors. President George H.W. Bush served as a calm—and calming—air traffic controller, guiding an increasingly dispirited Gorbachev as he piloted the Soviet state in for a soft landing on the ash heap of history.

And had Boris Yeltsin not stood up to the hard-line communists who briefly ousted Gorbachev in 1991, the Soviet Union—and the Soviet system—might have survived. In which case, there might still have been a celebration of freedom in Berlin this week, but there would probably not have been anyone from Moscow in attendance.

• ARKADELPHIA — Johnnie Mae Walker Spargo was born on the first day of Spring, March 20, 1919, and from that day until her last on this earth, Nov. 8, 2009, she cast her beautiful blue eyes and dimpled smile on all of those around her. Johnnie Mae was the youngest daughter of Garland Lee and Nettie Mann Walker of Red Oak, Arkansas, now part of Hot Springs on the southeast shores of Lake Hamilton. She was predeceased by her parents and siblings, Claude, Eddie, Grady, Hansel, Clara, Isli, and Doyle. She was predeceased by her loving husband of 67 years, Stephen Fowler Spargo, and by Jamie and Billy Gibbs, her daughter and sonin-law, and her son-in-law Allen Brown DeLamar. The Spargos, natives of Hot Springs, made Arkadelphia home when Steve joined Reynolds Aluminum Company in 1954. Mrs. Spargo is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Byron and Mary Lynda Spargo, of Baton Rouge, La., and her daughters, Nancy Spargo DeLamar, of Little Rock, and Dr. Linda Spargo, of Oxford, Miss. Her grandchildren include Megan DeLamar Schroeder and her husband, Trey, of Texarkana; Hattie Alton of Oxford, Miss.; Johni Beth Gibbs and her fiance Jeremy Teague of Sheridan; Gwendy Clingman and her husband, Ed, of Mechanicsville, Va.; and Leslie Spargo of Baton Rouge. Johnnie Mae was especially proud of her great-grandchildren: Frances and Eleanor Schroeder and Ryan and Lauren Clingman. She was a fierce and loyal advocate for each and every one of her offspring and truly believed that they could be anything in the world they wanted to be. She was a member of the First Methodist Church in Arkadelphia. Johnnie Mae was a pre-school teacher for many years at Margo Nelson's Wonderland School in Arkadelphia. She also helped her community as a constant and reliable election poll worker. Even though Johnnie Mae was determined that she not be perceived as a retiring little granny, her family was her universe. She was a strong, vibrant woman with black hair coiffed on top of her head and clicking high heels, and she had beautiful skin that all of her progeny hope to inherit. She believed in living to the fullest until the end, doing good works, helping all whom she encountered in ways that she could, and imbuing her children and grandchildren with a strong work ethic and deep empathy for those less fortunate. Many people in Arkansas have been the recipient of one of her lemon butter pound cakes for doing something kind for one of her girls. When she won the 2003 Clark County Democrat of the Year, Johnnie Mae was described as a cross between Eva Peron and Mary Poppins. Johnnie Mae made her mark on Arkadelphia, determined that her children would enjoy to the fullest the experiences that the Norman Rockwellian setting provided. She threw herself into any endeavor that her children and grandchildren wanted to pursue. When Becky Fuller, now Rebecca Ward, was the first person from the city to win a statewide election at Girl's State, Johnnie Mae organized a city-wide homecoming celebration complete with a parade for all the Arkadelphia delegates that included her daughter Nancy. When Johnnie Mae's daughter Jamie wanted to pursue rodeo and barrel racing, Nonnie perfected her ability to sew cowgirl outfits while also cheering-on her daughter from the stands. When her daughter Linda wanted to serve as a cheerleader for Arkadelphia High School and then Ouachita Baptist University, Johnnie Mae and Steve's house became nerve-center for all events athletic. When daughter Nancy returned to Arkadelphia in 1964 with seven-month-old Megan to raise, Johnnie and Steve provided a nurturing, loving home for daughter and granddaughter. Megan was the grandchild who gave Johnnie Mae her proudest title: Johnnie Mae became "Nonnie." Nonnie was queen of a tribe of three generations of women known as "Spargo Girls." When her great-granddaughters Frances and Eleanor were born in 1999, Nonnie was determined that the twin girls would not use an exclusive communication method. Nonnie's special task was to talk with them extensively and one-on-one, making sure that the UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760369 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760369 Date: 06/30/2015

girls' first desire was to talk to her. Active in Democratic politics at all levels and with a passion, she was equally a dedicated life master of duplicate bridge and played many a set with her friends at the House of Bridge in Hot Springs. Johnnie ultimately spent most of her time driving to wherever one of her children lived to help with whatever tasks of life needed tending. In response to this demanding schedule, she famously responded, "You can sleep when you are dead!" Her stock question when confronted with news from one of her children of a pending event — whether one was receiving an award or going out for lunch — was "Well, what will you wear?" Raising all these Spargo girls, she was expert not only at re-upholstering an entire set of living room furniture, she also sewed countless, spontaneous-yetappropriate attire, from couture evening gowns to cowgirl wear. Making ball gowns from the draperies was not exclusive to other southern heroines. Perhaps Johnnie Mae's most endearing qualities were unfailing optimism combined with great pragmatism. She lived in the present and did not believe in guilt or regrets. Born before women could vote, she cast one of her last votes for the woman she hoped would be the first woman President. When Hillary did not prevail, she once again enjoyed casting a vote for a straight Democratic ticket. Nonnie would want the family to express special gratitude for the many kindnesses extended to her by the staff and nurses at Presbyterian Village in Little Rock, where she resided since June 2009. Thank you is extended also to Arkansas Hospice whose compassion and care comforted both family and friends. Thanks are also expressed to the staff of Home Instead and their compassionate caregiver, Bette White. John Lee Roberts of Arkadelphia provided unwavering help and assistance and was a much loved friend and companion to both Steve and Johnnie Mae. The family will have a visitation at 9:30-10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Ruggles-Wilcox Funeral Home in Arkadelphia, followed by a graveside service at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Rose Hill Cemetery led by Father Douglas Anderson of St. James Episcopal Church, Texarkana.

It has been a honor and a real joy to have been part of the team here at State; the past year has been one of the most enriching experiences of my career. I am leaving only for personal reasons; after pushing myself as hard as I possibly could the last several years, I need to do this for myself, to spend some time away from work with my family and friends and reenergize. Thank you once again for the remarkable opportunity to serve our country and work for the Secretary. This has been a rare privilege, and I cannot stress enough how appreciative I am. I hold the entire team here in the highest possible regard.

Finally!!! Who didn't vote? Original Message From: Rodriguez, Miguel E To: H Sent: Sat Nov 21 20:09:40 2009 Subject: Health Care Update This evening cloture was invoked on the motion to proceed to Majority Leader Reid's health care bill, 60 to 39. It was a straight party line vote. Despite some early concern over how they would vote, Senators Ben Nelson, Landrieu, and Lincoln voted with the caucus. Each has warned they're not a guaranteed "yes" vote on final passage. Senators voted from their seats, and Senator Dodd sat in the chair during the vote. The vote was followed by brief applause. Per the UC agreement negotiated by Reid and McConnell, this evening's cloture vote will also double as the vote on the underlying motion to proceed, meaning the Senate will recess after the vote and will be on the health care bill when it returns from the Thanksgiving recess.

Original Message From: Rodriguez, Miguel E To: Mills, Cheryl D; Sullivan, Jacob J; Abedin, Huma Cc: Toiv, Nora F; Verma, Richard R Sent: Fri Nov 20 08:20:18 2009 Subject: Health Care Update Just a brief update on the Senate health care debate. The Senate will take its first vote on health care legislation Saturday night now that Leader Reid seems to have secured the requisite votes to invoke cloture. The vote to invoke cloture will double as a vote on the motion to proceed, allowing senators to head home for Thanksgiving recess following the 8 p.m. vote. If cloture is invoked, Reid would immediately call up his bill as a substitute amendment to a House measure that will serve as the shell for the motion to proceed vote. Senator Coburn had threatened to require the clerk to read the 2,000page bill following the vote on the motion to proceed, but Reid will call up the bill by number only, which prevents a reading. Whether Reid has the votes to break the filibuster Saturday hangs on three Democrats: Senators Lincoln, Landrieu, and Ben Nelson. All three say they are undecided, but appear to indicate they are leaning toward voting in favor of cloture.

Reportedly Landrieu has been using her leverage to attempt to change the bill as it moves forward and won a particularly sweet deal that could bring billions to Louisiana. Following 2005's Hurricane Katrina, Louisiana saw an increase in per capita income, which led to a significant drop in federal Medicaid funding. Reid included language in the bill that will increase funding by 50 percent of the total decrease. You will recall that Senator Snowe was the only Republican to vote in favor of the Finance bill, but said she has too many concerns with Reid's version to support the cloture vote Saturday. Earlier this week, the CB0 scored the Reid bill. The CBO estimates the total cost of the legislation is $848 billion. Below please find a copy of the President's statement on the roll out of Reid's legislation:

STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT OBAMA ON THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT "Today we passed another critical milestone in the health reform effort with the release of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. I was particularly pleased to see that the Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the bill will reduce the deficit by $127 billion over the next ten years and as much as $650 billion in the decade following, saving hundreds of billions while extending coverage to 31 million more Americans. From day one, our goal has been to enact legislation that offers stability and security to those who have insurance and affordable coverage to those who don't, and that lowers costs for families, businesses and governments across the country. Majority Leader Reid, Chairmen Baucus and Dodd, and countless Senators have worked tirelessly to craft legislation that meets those principles. Just yesterday, a bipartisan group of more than 20 leading health economists released a letter urging passage of meaningful reform and praising four key provisions that are in the Senate legislation: a fee on insurance companies offering high-premium plans, the establishment of an independent Medicare commission, reforms to the health care delivery system, and overall deficit neutrality. The economists said that these provisions 'will reduce long-term deficits, improve the quality of care, and put the nation on a firm fiscal footing.' Those are precisely the goals we should be seeking to attain. The challenges facing our health care system aren't new — but if we fail to act they'll surely get even worse, meaning higher premiums, skyrocketing costs, and deeper instability for those with coverage. Today, thanks to the Senate's hard work, we're closer than ever to enacting solutions to these problems. I look forward to working with the Senate and House to get a finished bill to my desk as soon as possible." ###

About six weeks ago, HRC agreed to give a speech commemorating the anniversary of the 1994 UN Conference on Population and Development in Cairo. I believe the actual anniversary is December 18th so frankly, if we did the speech in early January, we would not be that far off the mark. The idea would be to do this speech at State with the audience including the NG0s, Gates Foundation, UN, and Packard Foundations. This speech could send a message regarding the link between population and environmental sustainability and as a result, improve women's status and rights. I would love to give them January 6th-8th if that works on your end.

For: Hillary From: Sid Re: Afghan/Western Alliance/UK

1. Happy Thanksgiving! 2. On the eve of the president's announcement on Afghanistan the Western alliance is near-broken. The obvious: Your trip to NATO will be the final call on Afghanistan. Whatever you scrap together there will be the remains of the day. There will be no more. The spare change in troops you pick up will be the close-out deal. The Europeans will be less amenable to contributions in the future than the House Democratic Caucus. 3. Consensus across the board in Britain—center, right, left—is that the Atlantic alliance—the special relationship— the historic bond since World War II—is shattered. There is no dissenting voice, not one, and there are no illusions. Opinion is unanimous. The bottom line is that the Obama administration's denigration of the UK is seen as the summation of the Bush era. Undoubtedly, you saw this week Minister of Defense Bob Ainsworth's public criticism of Obama's indecision and his accusation that the president is indifferent and damaging to British interest. While Downing Street sought to ameliorate his remarks with an oleaginous statement his view is simply What everyone—everyonethinks. His clumsy outburst was a classic gaffe—an embarrassing mistake because it reveals something true. The Chilcot inquiry of Parliament, publicly conducting hearings on the origins of UK involvement in the Iraq invasion, has put Bush's war on terror—and British involvement—on trial—and the calmly conducted but eviscerating hearings will go on for another year. Blair is seen as either complicit on the basis of knowing there was no casus belli or as an enthusiastically deceived tool. Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal Democrats, has stated that the reason support for the Afghanistan mission has cratered is because of the lies told in the run-up to the Iraq war—another view universally held. Meanwhile, former UK ambassador to the US Christopher Meyer has published his new book on the history of UK diplomacy with concluding sections on the demise of the special relationship.

also has appeared as a voluble witness before the Chilcot commission. (I've included a report below.) All British newspapers and journals have prominently published many pieces within the last week on the decline and fall of the USUK relationship. (I've included below the lead editorial today from the London Times and the cover story from the Spectator—two of the most resolutely pro-American sources.) The tone is not resentful, but reserved, disdainful and superior. The US administration is considered blinkered, parochial and counter-productive. Conservatives are more contemptuous than Labour, which feels abandoned and somewhat baffled. Rather than eager to be Obama's poodle, Cameron would be superficially friendly and privately scornful. Class has a lot to do with the contempt. A Cameron government would be more aristocratic and even narrowly Etonian than any Conservative government in recent history, sharply contrasting especially with the striving and classless perspective of the grocer's daughter, Margaret Thatcher. And yet, and yet, the most recent poll this week showed Labour within striking distance of the Tories, about five points down, the result of a slight economic uptick. A hung parliament seems very possible. Given the distribution of voting patterns, Labour need not win a plurality to have more seats than the Tories. The slight buoyancy for Labour in this unique situation has only heightened anxiety about Obama's Afghanistan process, which has excluded the British government from significant consultation and consideration of its interests. (See the lead to Con Coughlin's Spectator piece.) Therefore, you might contemplate a brief trip to London and public appearance with Brown on your way back from Brussels. 4. On the Western alliance, beyond its military part, NATO, there is much more to say and develop, but later. Read three pieces below:

From The Times November 26, 2009 Atlantic drift Washington's delay in announcing its Afghanistan strategy has left Brown drifting. Obama needs to invest more time and attention in the transatlantic alliance President Obama declared on Tuesday that "the whole world" had a responsibility to help the US-led mission in Afghanistan. He would, he said, soon lay out the "obligations of our international partners". Those partners have been waiting a long time for the details. On Monday the President had his tenth meeting with his advisers to work out his strategy for Afghanistan. He has now spent almost three months considering his options, and has promised an announcement on deployments after the Thanksgiving holiday. For Gordon Brown, this cannot come too soon. After the United States, Britain is the largest contributor of troops to the Nato operation in Afghanistan. There has never been any suggestion that Britain has enough soldiers to pursue a separate strategy or that it can operate independently of the US forces, which already number some 68,000 troops. Until the White House decides whether to send an extra 40,000 or some figure significantly lower than the number requested by General Stanley McChrystal, Mr Brown cannot properly plan the best support strategy. It is becoming sadly apparent that Britain has been left drifting by the delays in Washington, and that the Obama Administration is largely unaware of the embarrassment this is causing the Government. More worryingly, this does not seem to be a source of concern within the Administration. Downing Street, diplomatically, turns aside any suggestion that it is frustrated by the nonchalance with which it is being treated. But the insistent questions on Afghanistan, the anger caused by the steady stream of returning war dead and the rapid crumbling of public support for the war cannot be answered effectively until Mr Brown is taken into American confidence and seen as a full partner in the Nato campaign. On the surface, the continuing high regard in Britain for the dynamic and articulate new President has masked these growling complaints. Mr Brown is not suffering, as his predecessor did, from the taint of close association with a deeply unpopular US president. On the contrary: like several European leaders, he is still eager to position himself as close as possible to Mr Obama to clothe himself in some of the President's European popularity. But within Government, there is already worry that Britain's voice counts far less than it did in the past. This is not simply another instance of the persistent but pointless British anxiety over the so-called special relationship; it is a justified concern that two of the main pillars of the Nato alliance should have policies and strategies that are closely co-ordinated and sympathetically understood on both sides when fighting a war. The fault, glaringly, is on the American side. The White House no longer seems to be monitoring the reactions and •political options of its transatlantic allies. It is not sufficient to suggest that the Administration sees little point in investing time and diplomacy in a British government likely to be defeated in the coming general election; wartime allies have interests that go far beyond the political make-up of the government of the day. Mr Obama promised during his UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015

election campaign to revive trust in American leadership and to re-engage in multinational diplomacy. In office, he has certainly voiced the same ideals; but he has invested little in giving new substance and dynamism to the transatlantic relationship. On Afghanistan, Mr Brown has sometimes been left speechless by Washington. He talks of sending 500 extra troops. But until he knows the likely US strategy, he cannot outline his own. Atlanticism is always fragile on the Left and was stretched to breaking point by Tony Blair. It is now being undermined by indifference in Washington. Today America is enjoying Thanksgiving. Tomorrow it must look out again to its all THE SPECTATOR A special form of disrespect Con Coughlin Wednesday, 18th November 2009 Barack Obama's increasing disregard for Britain's views is no way to treat an ally whose troops have fought side by side with America since September 11, says Con Coughlin Washington It says much about Britain's rapidly disappearing 'special relationship' with America that when I happened to mention to some of our senior military officers that I was visiting Washington, they begged me to find out what the Obama administration was thinking about Afghanistan. It is not just that the transatlantic lines of communication, so strong just a few years ago, have fallen into disuse. There is now a feeling that, even if we reached the Oval Office, there would be no one willing to take Britain's call. • For weeks now, President Obama has been deliberating over what the Afghan strategy should be — and how many troops to send. If there is confusion in Washington, then Britain's strategy is not much clearer. Gordon Brown has staged a recent flurry of activity on the subject, from writing misspelt letters to grieving mothers to demanding that an exit strategy be established for the withdrawal of British forces. Yet among our top brass, the general perception is that the Prime Minister has little interest in the war. • It is often as if Brown regards the Afghan campaign as a dead fish that Tony Blair has left in the top drawer of his Downing Street desk. It has infected his premiership with a foul odour, and he wants to be rid of it as soon as possible. This explains his promise, on Monday, to set a timetable for the withdrawal of British troops at the earliest available opportunity. The signal is sent that an exit is not just in sight, but being approached. • Brown's approach hardly squares with his Foreign Secretary's assertion, made the next day in his address to Nato's Parliamentary Assembly, that British forces should remain until the Afghans are strong enough to take care of their own affairs. Miliband might have his faults, such as his obsessive enthusiasm for Europe. But he is sound on Afghanistan where — unlike the prime minister — he has been an articulate and well-informed advocate of the Nato cause. One has the feeling that, if Mr Obama were able to talk about Afghanistan, Mr Miliband could have a decent conversation with him. But the very fact that these policy divisions are now starting to appear in London is symptomatic of a far deeper malaise that lies at the heart of Afghan policy-making; it is a malaise that now threatens to jeopardise the success of the entire mission. And this malaise is the absence of meaningful dialogue between the White House and its hitherto most stalwart and reliable ally, particularly when it comes to the messy business of confronting Islamist militants through force of arms. • We all had a good giggle when Brown was reduced to chasing the Leader of the Free World through the subterranean kitchen complex at the UN's New York headquarters in September. One can understand why Obama can think of a million better ways to spend his time than talking to our obsessive, nail-chewing and electorally doomed prime minister. But given that Britain and America are currently fighting a war together; one would hope that the true statesman would overcome any personal reservations and deal with Mr Brown because of the country he represents. What really troubles British policymakers is that the collapse in the relationship is institutional, not personal, and that the president has little interest in listening to what Britain has to say on many world issues, even at a time when British servicemen and women are sacrificing their lives in what is supposed to be a common cause. • The astonishing disregard with which Mr Obama treats Britain has been made clear by his deliberations over the Afghan issue. As he decides how many more troops to send to Afghanistan — a decision which will fundamentally affect the scope of the mission — Britain is reduced to guesswork. The White House does not even pretend to portray this as a joint decision. It is a diplomatic cold-shouldering that stands in contrast not just to the Blair–Bush era, but to the togetherness of the soldiers on the ground.

One of the enduring cornerstones of the transatlantic alliance is the deep bond that exists between the British and American armed forces. The strength of the American military might be many times that available to Britain but, as any senior officer will tell you, on either side of the Atlantic, they are so close as to be joined at the hip. From the moment they sign up, young American and British officers train together, socialise together and — since 9/11 — have fought and died together. • The relaxed familiarity between the two martial traditions was reflected in the warmth with which General Stanley McChrystal, the American commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan, referred during his recent visit to London to British contemporaries such as `Jatko', General Sir Michael Jackson, former head of the British army, and lamby', Lt-Gen Sir Graeme Lamb, who is currently spending his well-earned retirement in Kabul helping to devise a new counterinsurgency strategy to defeat the Taleban. So far as Afghanistan is concerned, it would be fair to say that American and British military commanders are singing from the same Afghan prayer mat. • Indeed, there was no shortage of enthusiasm on the part of the British military, or any of the other Whitehall departments involved in the Afghan campaign, to support Obama when he announced last March a new counterinsurgency strategy based on an Iraq-like military 'surge'. McChrystal was personally appointed by Obama to make the policy a success, and General Sir David Richards, himself a former commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan, was one of a number of senior army officers who quickly got behind the new initiative. So, too, did the redoubtable Sir Sherard Cowper-Coles, our former ambassador to Kabul, who drafted numerous briefing documents making the case for greater co-operation and cohesion within Whitehall, and the development of a comprehensive counter-terrorism strategy that encompassed all the participants, and not just the military. So where are they now, all these bright initiatives? Why is it that the Foreign . Office and our senior military commanders are as much in the dark as anyone else as to what the strategy for Afghanistan is to be? We don't know, because Mr Obama is too busy cosying up to his new churns in Moscow and Beijing to tell us. And as we stumble around in the policy darkness, there is the inevitable tendency to make it up as we go along. Hence the conflicting policy edicts issued this week by Messrs Brown and Miliband. • The trouble started in the summer, when Obama appears to have had a change of heart and, rather than proceeding with the Afghan strategy he announced in March, decided to undertake a review of it instead. And in the process of so doing he has provided us with a telling insight into how we can expect the Obama presidency to function in future. Much of the criticism, at home and abroad, concerning the Afghan policy review has tended to focus on accusations of White House dithering which, after nearly three and a half months, is not entirely without foundation. But what should be far more worrying for all those countries, such as Britain, that had looked forward to co-operating with Obama's apparent desire to reach out and engage with America's allies is the exclusivity of his style of decisionmaking — if you can call it that. As General McChrystal has found to his cost, Obama and his inner circle of Chicago pols do not take kindly to being second-guessed by those whose advice they seek, but have every right to reject. There is no reason to doubt McChrystal's gloomy prediction — which is generally endorsed by Whitehall — that without an extra 40,000 Nato troops the Afghan mission is doomed to failure. But talk to any Obama aide these days and they will tell you that, fine soldier though he undoubtedly is, McChrystal is politically naive, spoke out of turn and now thoroughly regrets the day he ever set foot in a London think tank, where he stated his case too explicitly for the White House's liking. One recent two-hour Afghan strategy meeting spent 24 minutes discussing whether McChrystal was the right man for the job after all. In other words, to use the phrase- °logy popular in Chicago, he's dead meat. • Obama, meanwhile, has made his own deliberations so secretive that only about three people in the whole of Washington — and, ergo, the rest of the world — know precisely what he has in mind, and none of them is talking. Even President George \N. Bush, who was frequently criticised for his arrogance and unilateralism, was better than this. From 9/11 until the Iraq war, he kept Tony Blair and other trusted allies (there weren't that many, let's face it) fully briefed on what he was planning — so much so that Blair is now accused of colluding with him to invade Iraq from the spring of 2002. • But with Obama there are no regular video-conferences bringing Downing Street up to date on the latest White House thinking. No special envoys making secret visits to London to keep the key players informed. Instead we will have to wait, like everyone else, for the puffs of smoke from the White House — which are now expected around the Thanksgiving holiday — to find out what Obama really intends to do about Afghanistan. He is, in all too many ways, an AWOL ally.

Nor is it just on Afghanistan that we can discern a high-handed approach from the American president. Did Obama bother to consult Britain before cancelling the missile shield system for Eastern Europe (the early-warning detection system is, after all, based at RAF Fylingdales on the North Yorkshire Moors)? No he did not. The Poles, who are rightly sensitive about their security being used as a bargaining chip in negotiations with their super-power neighbours, had to make do with a late-night call from Hillary Clinton on the eve of the announcement — the Poles understandably turned down the call, a breach of both manners and protocol. In his keenness to befriend Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, had Obama taken any account of the widespread European unease concerning the mood of resurgent nationalism sweeping Moscow? Not a chance. • And to judge from his recent peregrinations around the Far East, it seems Obama is far more interested in making new friends than taking the trouble to keep up with old acquaintances. The enthusiasm he displayed when he bumped into Dmitry Medvedev, Russia's Prime Minister, during this week's Apec summit in Singapore was considerably greater than he has shown for many of his European allies. Not for Medvedev the indignity of conducting important bilateral discussions in kitchens surrounded by vats of boiling noodles. And in Beijing Obama spent a convivial evening with President Hu Jintao, discussing the evolution and histories of China and America. Being an American ally has never seemed so unrewarding. • There will, though, inevitably come a time when Obama discovers who America's true friends really are. Sooner or later he will have to deal with the considerably more taxing issues of Islamist militancy, rogue nuclear states and other tangible threats to the West's security. At that point, Obama will discover a simple but essential truth. The world divides between those who support American values of freedom and democracy, and those who seek to destroy them. • Few nations have been more committed to supporting those values with both blood and treasure than Britain. This country, and especially those British troops fighting alongside their American counterparts, deserve far better than this president's disregard. • Con Coughlin is the Daily Telegraph's executive foreign editor and author of Khomeini's Ghost: Iran since 1979 (Macmillan). • The Spectator, 22 Old Queen Street, London, SW1H 9HP.

Iraq war build-up 'left us scrabbling for smoking gun says ex-UK ambassador Sir Christopher Meyer says plans to invade Iraq did not give time for weapons inspectors James Meikle and Andrew Sparrow • guardian.co.uk , Thursday 26 November 2009 12.57 GMT The military timetable for an invasion of Iraq in 2003 did not give time for UN weapons inspectors in the country to do their job, the former British ambassador to Washington told the Iraq inquiry in London today. Sir Christopher Meyer said the "unforgiving nature" of the build-up after American forces had been told to prepare for war meant that "we found ourselves scrabbling for the smoking gun". He added: "It was another way of saying 'it's not that Saddam has to prove that he's innocent, we've now bloody well got to try and prove he's guilty.' And we – the Americans, the British – have never really recovered from that because of course there was no smoking gun." The US had first prepared for invasion in January but the date was later moved to March. "Ail that said, when you looked at the timetable for the inspections, it was impossible to see how [Hans] Biix [chief weapons inspector] could bring the process to a conclusion, for better or for worse, by March." Meyer said he had been in favour of removing Saddam. He thought you did not need 9/11 or weapons of mass destruction to justify confronting Iraq. Saddam had not lived up to the commitments given after the first Gulf war. He had "the means and the will" to build weapons even if he hid not have them at the time. Meyer said he did not know what made the UK fix "on a very large land force by our standards". He believed it would not have damaged Britain's standing in the US to have sent fewer troops to Iraq, but actively opposing the war would have done.

Earlier Meyer said George Bush's administration was seen by many as "running out of steam" on the eve of the "great atrocity" of the 9/11 attacks on the US. It looked like an administration that had run into trouble very quickly, the former ambassador to Washington said. People were saying the effort of getting big tax cuts and medical prescription benefits for older people through Congress had "killed" Bush, Meyer said. He added that secretary of state Colin Powell's efforts to narrow and deepen sanctions against Iraq had failed and there was a "huge bear market" against Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary. Meyer said attitudes towards Iraq were influenced to an extent not appreciated by him at the time by the anthrax scare in the US soon after 9/11 . US senators and others were sent anthrax spores in the post, a crime that led to the death of five people, prompting policymakers to claim links to Saddam Hussein. Meyer told the third day of Sir John Chilcot's hearings that from the onset of the Bush presidency in 2001, there was enthusiasm on the Republican right for arming and supporting Iraqi dissidents, "mostly in London", particularly the Iraqi National Congress led by Ahmad Chalabi. Powell was sceptical of such "belligerent" moves, concentrating on sanctions with Robin Cook, the then-British foreign secretary, with whom, Meyer said, "somewhat to my surprise", he got on well. On 9/11 Condoleezza Rice, then the US national security adviser, told Meyer she was in "no doubt: it was an al-Qaida operation". The following weekend Bush and his key advisers met at Camp David and contacts later told Meyer there had been a "big ding-dong" about Iraq and Saddam. It seemed that Paul Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld's deputy, argued for retaliation to include Iraq, Meyer said. It was not clear where Rumsfeld stood. But later that month Bush and Tony Blair, on a visit to Washington, were agreed on a "laser-like focus" on al-Qaida and Pakistan. Blair's reputation had soared "above all others" because of his support for the US, the former ambassador told the inquiry. But the anthrax scare had "steamed up" policy makers in Bush's administration and helped swing attitudes against Saddam, who the administration believed had been the last person to use anthrax. Rice fell more and more "in the camp of Powell's enemies". There was a "sea change" in attitudes to containment but the UK still had "a legal problem" with regime change. Meyer told British officials to argue that the alliance would be in better shape if there was international support for military action. There was no need to argue that with the state department. But there was with Dick Cheney, the vice-president, and Rumsfeld. Asked about Blair's meeting with Bush at Crawford, Texas, in April 2002, where, some observers believe, the decision to go to war was made, Meyer said: "To this day I'm not entirely clear what degree of convergence was signed in blood at the Texas range." But a speech by Blair the following day was, he believed, the first time the prime minister had publicaly said "regime change". "What he was trying to do was to draw the lessons of 9/11 and apply them to the situation in Iraq, which led —! think not inadvertently but deliberately — to a conflation of the threat posed by Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. "When I heard that speech, I thought that this represents a tightening of the UK/US alliance and a degree of convergence on the danger Saddam Hussein presented."

The slight buoyancy for Labour in this unique situation has only heightened anxiety about Obama's Afghanistan process, which has excluded the British government from significant consultation and consideration of its interests. See the lead to Con Coughlin's Spectator piece. Therefore, the President might contemplate a brief stop in London going to or coming from Oslo or a meeting in Copenhage to make a public appearance with Brown. And, others in the Administration should pay special attention to Brown to secure strong support from him, and more importantly, the whole government and British establishment should be reassured that we do value their stalwart support despite the ups and downs of the last eight years. Pasted below is the Times editorial and the link to the Spectator article. From The Times November 26, 2009 Atlantic drift Washington's delay in announcing its Afghanistan strategy has left Brown drifting. Obama needs to invest more time and attention in the transatlantic alliance President Obama declared on Tuesday that "the whole world" had a responsibility to help the US-led mission in Afghanistan. He would, he said; soon lay out the "obligations of our international partners". Those partners have been waiting a long time for the details. On Monday the President had his tenth meeting with his advisers to work out his strategy for Afghanistan. He has now spent almost three months considering his options, and has promised an announcement on deployments after the Thanksgiving holiday. For Gordon Brown, this cannot come too soon. After the United States, Britain is the largest contributor of troops to the Nato operation in Afghanistan. There has never been any suggestion that Britain has enough soldiers to pursue a separate strategy or that it can operate independently of the US forces, which already number some 68,000 troops. Until the White House decides whether to send an extra 40,000 or some figure significantly lower than the number requested by General Stanley McChrystal, Mr Brown cannot properly plan the best support strategy. It is becoming sadly apparent that Britain has been left drifting by the delays in Washington, and that the Obama Administration is largely unaware of the embarrassment this is causing the Government. More worryingly, this does not seem to be a source of concern within the Administration. Downing Street, diplomatically, turns aside any suggestion that it is frustrated by the nonchalance with which it is being treated. But the insistent questions on Afghanistan, the anger caused by the steady stream of returning war dead and the rapid crumbling of public support for the war cannot be answered effectively until Mr Brown is taken into American confidence and seen as a full partner in the Nato campaign. On the surface, the continuing high regard in Britain for the dynamic and articulate new President has masked these growling complaints. Mr Brown is not suffering, as his predecessor did, from the taint of close association with a deeply unpopular US president. On the contrary: like several European leaders, he is still eager to position himself as close as possible to Mr Obama to clothe himself in some of the President's European popularity. But within Government, there is already worry that Britain's voice counts far less than it did in the past. This is not simply another instance of the persistent but pointless British anxiety over the so-called special relationship; it is a justified concern that two of the main pillars of the Nato alliance should have policies and strategies that are closely co-ordinated and sympathetically understood on both sides when fighting a war. The fault, glaringly, is on the American side. The White House no longer seems to be monitoring the reactions and political options of its transatlantic allies. It is not sufficient to suggest that the Administration sees little point in investing time and diplomacy in a British government likely to be defeated in the coming general election; wartime allies have interests that go far beyond the political make-up of the government of the day. Mr Obama promised during his election campaign to revive trust in American leadership and to re-engage in multinational diplomacy. In office, he has certainly voiced the same ideals; but he has invested little in giving new substance and dynamism to the transatlantic relationship. On Afghanistan, Mr Brown has sometimes been left speechless by Washington. He talks of sending 500 extra troops. But until he knows the likely US strategy, he cannot outline his own. Atlanticism is always fragile on the Left and was stretched to breaking point by Tony Blair. It is now being undermined by indifference in Washington. Today America is enjoying Thanksgiving. Tomorrow it must look out again to its all

Please let me know what you think:

Statement by the Secretary On the Restoration of Democratic and Constitutional Order In Honduras November 27, 2009 The United States remains committed to help restore the democratic and constitutional order in Honduras in the wake of the June 28 coup d'etat that removed President Zelaya and led to the suspension of Honduras from the Organization of American States. As part of that effort, it is essential for both parties in Honduras to implement the measures they agreed to in the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord, including the formation of a government of unity and national reconciliation and the December 2 congressional vote on President Zelaya"s restitution. These are vital elements of the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord, and the Honduran people and the international community expect an expeditious determination. We look forward to the Congressional deliberations getting underway as announced. The November 29 national elections are another critical step in the restoration of the democratic and constitutional order in Honduras. The electoral process -- launched well before June 28 and involving legitimate candidates representing parties with longstanding democratic traditions from a broad ideological spectrum -- is conducted under the stewardship of the non-partisan Supreme Electoral Tribunal, which was also selected before the coup. The electoral renewal of presidential, congressional and mayoral mandates, enshrined in the Honduran constitution, is an inalienable expression of the sovereign will of the citizens of Honduras. We wish the Honduran people well as they choose their new leaders on Sunday, and we urge all sides to exercise their rights peacefully. The holding of a free, fair and transparent election is necessary but not sufficient for Honduras to reestablish the democratic and constitutional order. In order to help achieve that objective, we will continue, along with others in the region, to support the step-by-step implementation of the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord as a democratic way forward for the Honduran people. The president-elect who emerges from an election deemed free and fair will have a unique opportunity to promote that vital mission.

CONFIDENTIAL

November 29, 2009

For: Hillary From: Sid Re: Backdrop to your coming week Below is a piece published today in The Observer, the Sunday newspaper of The Guardian, on the Chilcot inquiry, summarizing the testimony so far and what is expected this week while you are drumming up support for the Afghanistan initiative. Britain and Europe are riveted by Chilcot, especially official circles. The objective correlative, of course, is trust in any U.S. administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan project. Yet another undercurrent among the mandarins is disdainful resentment of indifference to Britain, a sentiment beyond Labour or the Tories but what has emerged as the view of the permanent establishment at Whitehall and elsewhere. Mandelson Watch: After Miliband declined to reach for the EU foreign secretaryship (though Sarkozy wanted him to take it and Brown was not averse, even favorable), Mandelson personally campaigned on his own for it among the Europeans. Mandelson was eager to Miliband to take the EU post, allowing Mandelson to be appointed foreign minister. When Miliband refused, Mandelson's ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the EU position for himself, but without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad. Suddenly, they recalled his bad or strange behavior as UK commissioner to the EU. When Christine Ashton was named, Mandelson briefed the press on her lack of credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press to try to help Mandelson when he had gotten into the mess that led to his first resignation. Those inside the government who remember this see it as an illustration of the principle that no good deed goes unpunished. Mandelson, in a snit, is now not speaking to Gordon as though his rejection were Gordon's fault.

One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today? He nails McDonough for trashing Biden, among other things. Enclosed below story on Chilcot:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/29/iraq-war-inquiry-chilcot-blair Chilcot Inquiry: Mandarins take revenge on Tony Blair over Iraq Civil servants and diplomats are lining up to stick a knife into former PM's reputation * Toby Helm and Rajeev Syal The Observer , Sunday 29 November 2009 * * Whitehall mandarins are supreme masters of subtle evasion. But they do not rise to the top of their trade without also knowing how to stick in the knife. At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the "official channels" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves — finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like salami day after day. Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the threat from Saddam's, supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. "We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents." Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the case for war. "I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use," he said. But he had set the tone. On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of Margaret Thatcher. "I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I. think about this: what would Margaret Thatcher have done?" Meyer asked. "I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you removed Saddam Hussein." A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. "We could have achieved more by playing a tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature — it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning." Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with Washington's, Meyer added: "I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760498 Date: 06/30/2015

On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: "I regard our participation in the military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the UK." Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddarn would be given a final chance to disarm. The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America and Britain. Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's evidence that Meyer received "new instructions" in early 2005 indicating that it was a "complete waste of time" to oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to office in 2001 that there were "voices" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush that he would support military action "to bring about regime change". According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as "scrambling to establish a link between Iraq and al-Qaida" — a connection that was "so far, frankly unconvincing". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the conflict. The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad.

Sunday, November 29, 2009 Dec. 1, 2009: My fellow Americans, This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. Which is: steamed. 1 want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop increase you get, so make it work. ! am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war council meetings. Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 addrtional U.S. soldiers. Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, 5,000 additional trainers and a "NATO surge" of 5,000 foreign troops. That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party -while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in 2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to get the right balance back. That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and then making a retired Marine four-star I hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I already was. Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the uniforms as the "floor" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will make it a ceiling. We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front and center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. I will bet that Stan McChrystaI never drew up a budget in his life. Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it Jones says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That new secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. "Say it now, pay it later," we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need pledges now so !can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's unspoken-goal number three. So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, and am presenting the "civilian surge" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo speech. And who knows? it may even work out that way. If God blesses us all.

Afghanistan initiative. Britain and Europe are riveted by Chilcot, especially official circles. The objective correlative, of course, is trust in any U.S. administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan project. Yet another undercurrent among the mandarins is disdainful resentment of indifference to Britain, a sentiment beyond Labour or the Tories but what has emerged as the view of the permanent establishment at Whitehall and elsewhere. Mandelson Watch: After Miliband declined to reach for the EU foreign secretaryship (though Sarkozy wanted him to take it and Brown was not averse, even favorable), Mandelson personally campaigned on his own for it among the Europeans. Mandelson was eager to Miliband to take the EU post, allowing Mandelson to be appointed foreign minister. When Miliband refused, MandeIson's ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the EU position for himself, but without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad: Suddenly, they recalled his bad or strange behavior as UK commissioner to the EU. When Christine Ashton was named, Mandelson briefed the press on her lack of credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press to try to help Mandelson when he had gotten into the mess that led to his first resignation. Those inside the government who remember this see it as an illustration of the principle that no good deed goes unpunished. Mandelson, in a snit, is now not speaking to Gordon as though his rejection were Gordon's fault. One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today? He nails McDonough for trashing Biden, among other things. Enclosed below story on Chilcot:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/29/iraq-war-inquiry-chilcot-blair Chilcot Inquiry: Mandarins take revenge on Tony Blair over Iraq Civil servants and diplomats are lining up to stick a knife into former PM's reputation • * Toby Helm and Rajeev Syal * The Observer , Sunday 29 November 2009 * Whitehall mandarins are supreme masters of subtle evasion. But they do not rise to the top of their trade without also knowing how to stick in the knife. At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the "official channels" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves — finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like salami day after day. Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. "We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760499 Date: 06/30/2015

Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the case for war. "I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use," he said. But he had set the tone. On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of Margaret Thatcher. "I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: what would Margaret Thatcher have done?" Meyer asked. "I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you removed Saddam Hussein." A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. "We could have achieved more by playing a tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature — it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning." Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with Washington's, Meyer added: "I wouldn't.say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that." On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: "I regard our participation in the military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the IJK." Today new argurnents'are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America and Britain. Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's evidence that Meyer received "new instructions" in early 2005 indicating that it was a "complete waste of time" to oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office IVIiddle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to office in 2001 that there were "voices" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush that he would support military action "to bring about regime change". According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as "scrambling to establish a link between Iraq and al-Qaida" — a connection that was "so far, frankly unconvincing". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760499 Date: 06/30/2015

After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the conflict. The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. When Chi!cot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in January. In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute blame.

Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's evidence that Meyer received "new instructions" in early 2005 indicating that it was a "complete waste of time" to oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to office in 2001 that there were "voices" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush that he would support military action "to bring about regime change". According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as "scrambling to establish a link between Iraq and al-Qaida" — a connection that was "so far, frankly unconvincing". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military • planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff. and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the conflict. The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in January. In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. The Washington Post Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss By Jim Hoagland Sunday, November 29, 2009 Dec. 1, 2009: My fellow Americans, This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. Which is: steamed. I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. First, to let those know-it-ails, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop increase you get, so make it work. I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war council meetings. Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against IV1cChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 additional U.S. soldiers.

Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, 5,000 additional trainers and a "NATO surge" of 5,000 foreign troops. That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party -while being able to refute John ;McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in 2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to get the right balance back. That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and then making a retired Marine four-star! hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I already was. Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the uniform S as the "floor" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will make it a ceiling. We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front and center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. I will bet that Stan McChrystal never drew up a budget in his life. Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it Jones says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That new secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. "Say it now, pay it later," we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need pledges now so I can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's unspoken-goal number three. So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, and am presenting the "civilian surge" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo speech. And who knows? It may even work out that way. If God blesses us all.

Abedin,

If our early assessment of today's election in Honduras holds, we will have just been witness to a remarkable thing: Honduran voters have taken back their democracy from two failed leaders -- Zelaya and Micheletti -- who had driven Honduras to isolation and despair. The turnout (probably a record) and the clear rejection of the Liberal Party shows our approach was the right one, and puts Brazil and others who would not recognize the election in an impossible position. As we think about what to say, I would strongly recommend that we not be shy. We should congratulate the Honduran people, we should connect today's vote to the deep democratic vocation of the Honduran people, and we should call on the community of democratic nations (and especially those of the Americas) to recognize, respect, and respond to this accomplishment of the Honduran people. Finally, this Administration, which worked so hard to manage and resolve this crisis, should be the one who defines the results and perceptions of today's vote, and not our critics on the Hill (who had no clear pathway to elections) or our adversaries in the region (who never wanted this day to happen).

Talking points for HRC's call to Greg Craig recommending Goodwin Liu for a nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit •

Goodwin is a widely respected, first-rate legal scholar. I know this first-hand because I coauthored a law review article with him in 2003 critiquing the Supreme Court's federalism decisions that cut back on Congress's power to enforce civil rights. Goodwin has published major articles on constitutional law, civil rights, and educational equity in top law journals. He earned tenure in his fifth year at UC Berkeley and was immediately promoted to Associate Dean. His 2006 article in the Yale Law Journal, "Education, Equality, and National Citizenship," won a prestigious national award for outstanding scholarship. This year, he won UC Berkeley's highest award for excellence in teaching. He went to college at Stanford, attended Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship, and graduated from Yale Law School.



Goodwin is a recognized leader in the progressive legal community. Goodwin was recently elected Chair of the Board of the American Constitution Society, a testament to his broad appeal and intellectual leadership. In 2006, he testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee against the confirmation of Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court, highlighting Judge Alito's record of upholding governMent power against claims of individual liberty or privacy. Goodwin serves on several other nonprofit boards, including the National Women's Law Center, and he is regularly consulted by lawyers, policymakers, and journalists who seek guidance on civil rights law.



Goodwin has a rare combination of scholarly credentials and practical experience in law and public policy. He clerked for Judge Tatel on the D.C. Circuit and Justice Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. He worked for two years in the litigation practice of O'Melveny & Myers in Washington, D.C. He served twice in the Clinton Administration—first at the Corporation for National Service helping to launch AmeriCorps, and later at the U.S. Department of Education developing civil rights and K-12 policy. As a scholar, he filed a Supreme Court amicus brief in 2006 supporting voluntary school desegregation. In 2008, he wrote a widely discussed policy brief proposing a more equitable system of school finance in California.



Goodwin has the temperament, intellect, and experience to be an outstanding judge. His reputation for collegiality, judgment, and fairness is amply demonstrated by his appointments as Chair of the American Constitution Society, as Associate Dean of his law school, and as a member of the Stanford University Board of Trustees.



There are currently no active Asian American judges on any federal court of appeals in the country. Goodwin is a first-generation American. He is the son of Taiwanese immigrants who came to this country with their suitcases and their educations. They were fortunate to have professional opportunities, and they taught themselves to be fluent in English. Goodwin grew up in Sacramento and attended public schools. He is the first in his family to become a lawyer.

Key talking points for HRC's calls to Senator Feinstein recommending Goodwin Liu for a nomination to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals •

Goodwin is a widely respected, first-rate legal scholar. I know this first-hand because I coauthored a law review article with him in 2003 on the relationship between Congress and the Court. Goodwin has published major articles on constitutional law and education policy in top law journals, and he is a frequent legal commentator in newspapers and media outlets.



Goodwin is a mainstream progressive in his judicial philosophy and substantive views. The best evidence is in his careful and thoughtful writings. In addition, Goodwin was recently elected Chair of the Board of the American Constitution Society, a testament to his broad appeal and widely recognized leadership qualities. Goodwin was also elected last year, after a careful vetting process, to the Stanford Board of Trustees, a position that attests to his reputation for collegiality, moderation, and judgment.



Goodwin follows the facts and legal reasoning to their logical conclusion, even when it may depart from liberal orthodoxy. For example, he wrote a law review article supporting private school vouchers as part of a proposal for expanded public school choice. In addition, last fall, the California Senate and Assembly Judiciary Committees called on Goodwin—and no other scholar in the state or elsewhere—to testify as a "neutral expert" on the legal impact of Proposition 8 (banning same-sex marriages). In that testimony, Goodwin said that, if Prop 8 passed, the California Supreme Court would be bound by applicable precedents to uphold it—a view contrary to the position taken by many gay rights advocates in pending litigation.



Goodwin has practical experience in law and public policy. He practiced law for two years at O'Melveny & Myers in Washington, D.C. And he served twice in education policy positions in the Clinton Administration (at the Corporation for National Service and the Department of Education). As a scholar, he continues to do practical legal and policy work.



Goodwin has a strong record of accomplishment. He went to college at Stanford, then to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, then to Yale Law School. He clerked for David Tatel on the D.C. Circuit and Ruth Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. He joined the Boalt faculty in 2003, was awarded tenure in 2008, and was promoted to Associate Dean of the law school. He won a prestigious scholarly award last year from the Education Law Association, and this year he won UC Berkeley's campus-wide teaching award.



There are no active Asian American judges on any Court of Appeals in the entire country. Goodwin is a first generation American. He is the son of Taiwanese immigrants who came to this country with their suitcases and their educations. They were fortnuate to have professional opportunities and they taught themselves to be fluent in English. They raised Goodwin in Sacramento where he attended public schools. He is the first in his family to attend law school and become a lawyer.

Reines, Philippe I (PACE) Saturday, March 21, 2009 11:21 AM Mills, Cheryl D AP/New Media

Story below is as good and straightforward as they come. It's a reflection of one of the best new-old partnerships I've seen in the bulding: Caroline Adler and PA's two in-house new media guys, Luke Forgerson & Dan Schaub..Refelcting your prioritization, she - along with Katie Dowd, have helped these guys unleash the full potential of this new kind of communications. Selling it to Matt was the easy part. Those guys are doing all the real work. And anecdotally, they're seeing great success already - with a lot more to come.

E-diplomacy? Hillary Clinton Embraces New Media By MATTHEW LEE AP Sat, Mar 21, 2009 WASHINGTON (AP) — Her videos aren't quite viral yet and she's not tweeting, but Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is embracing new media, using the Web to promote the agency and her role as the nation's top envoy. In less than three months, Clinton's State Department has embarked on a digital diplomacy drive aimed at spreading the word about American foreign policy and restoring Washington's image. Part of a broader Internet outreach by President Barack Obama's administration, Clinton's Web efforts already have outpaced those of her predecessors. Since taking over at Foggy Bottom, Clinton's team has built on e-diplomacy innovations developed during George W. Bush's presidency: - They have revamped the department's Web site (http://www.state.gov) and the Dipnote blog (http://blogs.state.gov and http://twitter.com/dipnote) with a fresh array of features, graphics and colorful posts. - Users can track her foreign travel on an interactive map (http://www.state.gov/secretary/trvI/map/?trip_id5) - They can keep up virtually with her every move through Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/user/statevideo). - They can pose questions through an "ask-the-secretary" column (http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/ask/secretary/117297.htm) that recently was revised to "text the secretary." (http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/ask/secretary/120236.htm) "New media is critical in this new era of diplomacy, where smart power and expanded dialogues are essential to achieving our foreign policy goals," said Cheryl Mills, Clinton's longtime confidante and chief of staff. Even for a government Web site, early indications show a surge in interest, according to internal State Department statistics provided to The Associated Press. Daily views of the Dipnote have doubled from 10,000 a year ago to 20,000 today, with 700 subscribers to its RSS feed, twice as many as in March 2008. The number of followers of the department on Twitter has tripled since Jan. 20, when Obama took office, while the department's Facebook friends have increased by 2 1/2 times in the same period.

"What they are bringing in is more willingness to experiment," said Peter Daou, who was Clinton's Web guru during her 2008 presidential run. "They are starting to push the envelope." What remains unclear, though, is whether the spike in interest reflects the revamped Web site or the public's fascination with Clinton's latest career shift. "The personality behind it can't be dismissed," said Daou, who now blogs on human rights and other issues for U.N. Dispatch (http://www.undispatch.com). Like Obama, Clinton carries a Blackberry, but she is not allowed to use it on the department's secure seventh floor where her office is. Aides say she takes an active role in answering questions from the Web, responding to bloggers and pushing her agency's new media agenda. "The United States Government is behind nearly everybody, except in certain discrete areas, in terms of technology," she told department employees at a town hall meeting in February. "We are, in my view, wasting time, wasting money, wasting opportunities, because we are not prepared to communicate effectively with what is out there in the business world and the private world." Clinton was quick to embrace new media at the start of her presidential campaign. She announced her entry into the race in February 2007 on the Web and followed with regular Internet chats and Internet fundraising appeals. Nonetheless, Clinton was surpassed by the Obama campaign's mastery of the Internet and social networking sites. Obama used the Web to raise record donations and identify and orchestrate an army of volunteers. Clinton was first lady when the first White House Web site debuted in 1994. It was a bare-bones operation compared with what is available now. Three years later, the State Department went online during Secretary of State Madeleine Albright's tenure. But it wasn't until 2007, under Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's spokesman, Sean McCormack, that the department's public affairs shop began exploring new media in earnest. McCormack started the Dipnote blog, which some foreign service veterans predicted would fail, given the private and stuffy nature of diplomacy. The site endured under Rice. Clinton has retooled Dipnote with a Twitter feed and a broader range of posts from diplomats. It's more than just window dressing. This past week, diplomats used Twitter to "tweet" down false rumors they feared might lead to a siege on the U.S. Embassy in Madagascar. On her first two foreign trips, to Asia and then the Middle East and Europe, local bloggers were "embedded" with the traveling press corps, broadening the audience for Clinton's official meetings and public appearances, which often produce more personal than policy questions. On her question site, Clinton has responded to a varied questions, from "Should the U.S. engage in direct dialogue with Hamas?" to "How did you like meeting the Japanese students?" By the end of Clinton's trip to the Mideast, her "text the secretary" feature had received nearly 2,000 text messages. On both trips, Clinton also participated in Webcasts. One in Beijing on climate change generated more than 10.2 million page views, more than 50,000 comments and 7,000 questions, according to the statistics. Clinton's staff say they plan to venture further into the realm of social networking, an animated online world called Second Life, and cell phone technology. The department hopes to follow through on a Bush administration organized

We have just received an action memo seeking a timely decision on State's position on a trade dispute with Mexico. EEB and WHA have competing recommendations. First, some background. Mexico requested a WTO panel to resolve its tuna/dolphin dispute with the United States U.S. measures prohibit Mexican tuna from being labeled "dolphin safe" even though the tuna is harvested in accordance with the Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Program. However, dolphin population recovery has not occurred as rapidly as expected under that Program. Despite the measures, Mexico exported about $18 million worth of tuna to the United States in 2007.

Poll: Clinton has high job approval http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/03/25/clinton.poll/

(CNN) -- As Hillary Clinton flies to Mexico for a high-level summit, a new national poll indicates seven in 10 Americans are happy with the job she's doing as secretary of state. Seventy-one percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey released Wednesday said they approve of how Clinton is handling her job as America's top diplomat. Fewer than one in four disapprove. "Nine in 10 Democrats approve of Clinton -- that's no surprise," said Keating Holland, CNN's polling director. "But by a 50 percent to 43 percent margin, Republicans also think she is doing a good job at the State Department. That's an interesting result for a polarizing figure like Clinton." The poll's release comes as Clinton teams up with Mexican officials to kick off weeks of meetings intended to find ways to fight drug violence on both sides of the U.S.-Mexican border. The Obama administration on Tuesday announced a major increase in security funding and agent deployments along the border. '--..tWatch what Clinton hopes to accomplish in Mexico » "Since taking office in January, Clinton has been at the White House nearly every day, meeting with President Obama, Vice President [Joseph] Biden and other members of the Cabinet and national security staff," said CNN State Department producer Elise Labott. "The secretary maintains close ties with her former colleagues on Capitol Hill and meets regularly with congressional leaders." The former first lady, senator from New York and one-time primary rival to Obama already has clocked close to 60,000 miles in her first two trips overseas -- one journey to China, the other to the Middle East and Europe -- since becoming secretary of state in January. Clinton was met by large crowds and warmly received by world leaders on both trips, although "she met some criticism in Beijing, where she was criticized for a lower-key approach that seemed to downplay the importance of human rights in the overall relationship with China," Labott said. "Her aides said she wanted a new approach to dealing with China's human rights record, including less public criticism and more private discussions, which may prove more productive in changing Chinese behavior." Clinton's approval rating is higher than that of her boss: The same CNN/Opinion Research poll put Obama's approval rating at 64 percent, 7 percentage points lower than Clinton's. Clinton has a couple of advantages over Obama in public opinion today, Holland said.

"She hasn't had a prominent role in the administration's economic or budget policies," he said. "There haven't been any international issues that have caused as much outrage as the AIG bonuses. And her name wasn't on the ballot in November, so any partisan animosity to her that is left over from 2008 is not as fresh in the public's mind." Clinton's approval rating is also 10 percentage points higher than the one her predecessor, Condoleezza Rice, had in March 2005, then two months into her tenure as secretary of state. The CNN/Opinion Research poll of 1,019 Americans was conducted by telephone March 12-15. The survey's sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.

FcRtgcgn Dangerous Thoughts

Obama's Personnel Problem Dan Gerstein, 03.25.09, 12:01 AM ET

The especially rocky week that President Obama just experienced has led many political observers to ask what happened to the fabled discipline candidate Obama showed during the campaign and on into the transition. How did he and his vaunted political machine go from "No Drama Obama" to bailout bonus blunders, Tim Geithner death watches and Special Olympic insults in less than two months? • The easy answer is that circumstances have changed, and there is a lot of truth to that. Governing is fundamentally different than campaigning—particularly in the pressure cooker of an economic meltdown. But that's exactly why I would argue that the president's escalating execution troubles are really a function of what has largely stayed the same since the election--the mismatched, understaffed team of loyalists around him. Indeed, as best I can tell, Obama has more than a Geithner problem. He has what I would call a Rumsfeld problem. That is to say, in the infamous words of the imperious defense secretary, the president made the mistake of going to economic war with the army he had—which was built for political speed and presidential comfort—instead of the army he needs to beat back the crisis of confidence that is crippling our markets and feeding the AIG blood lust. This is not a question of having good personnel. Obama had some of the best minds working in politics and policy helping him take down Hillary Clinton and John McCain. And it's only natural he would want to bring many of them into his White House to help run his government, much like most every modern president has done. •Rather, it's a question of having the right personnel in the right place to make the best case for Obama's complicated and challenging economic agenda--and perhaps most important, to persuade 42 UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760595 Date: 06/30/2015

the American people to swallow their anger along with another round of distasteful but necessary bailouts. By that measure, if you step back and look at Obama's sales force, it seems pretty clear so far that the president has the wrong mix of credibility, diversity and sensitivity for this seller's market. That's true for Treasury, for the White House and, most acutely, across the airwaves. Geithner, who joined Team Obama on the late side last November, has been the obvious poster child for this problem. But he is far from alone. Both Geithner and Larry Summers, who advised Obama during much of the campaign, have proven to be ineffective and at times damaging advocates for the president's policies. That's in part because of their uneven communications skills. But the bigger problem, critics on the right and left now agree, is that these two brilliant experts are too close to the Wall Street elites they are trying to rescue to procure the pound of contrition the public is demanding in exchange for more bailout money. Hence the tin ear for AIG's gilded ripoff. The White House's top talking heads have the opposite limitation: They are too removed from workings of the financial system to speak credibly about it. Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is by all accounts a talented political operative, who shone during the campaign. But unlike some of his recent predecessors--such as Clinton spokesman Mike McCurry (State Department) and Bush spokesman An Fleischer (House Ways and Means Committee)--Gibbs does not have any high-level policy experience. And according to Clinton refugees I know who now work on Wall Street, Gibbs' lack of financial literacy too often shows in his vague, halting answers to tough bailout questions. That's not his fault. He's just the wrong fit for this trust-building role. Obama's chief strategist, David Axelrod, has a similar knowledge deficit. To be sure, Axelrod is one of the most intuitive and resonant message meisters in the country, and few are better at doing political battle on the Sunday shows. But he has never worked in business or government, and just does not have the facility or standing of a Leon Panetta or even a David Gergen to make the case for a complex initiative like the bank rescue program the administration unveiled on Monday. Obama is suffering from not having a Gergen--in more ways than one. Indeed, when it comes to domestic issues, this White House often appears more a team of radicals than rivals. Forget about a Republican counterweight in Obama's inner circle--there does not seem to be any evidence even of a Democratic contrarian among the campaign loyalists and liberal acolytes in the West Wing. That is to say, the kind of independent thinker who would have pushed Obama to veto the earmarkladen, omnibus-pending bill that wound up making him look like a hypocrite; or to announce a list of programs the president would be cutting or eliminating before he released his budget to show he was serious about fiscal balance and discipline. Not to triangulate, but to reanimate the country-over-party spirit Obama widely inspired last year and to reassure millions of centrist supporters who have Understandable qualms about the dramatic expansion of deficit spending the president is pursuing. That lack of perspective is compounded by the lack of people in key positions in major agencies. And no one has paid a bigger price for that than Geithner, as Obama himself acknowledged in his 60 Minutes interview Sunday. Without any top political appointees in place at Treasury, Geithner had no one to bail him out on the AIG mess--to make up for his tone-deafness, monitor the bonus process and prod him to nip the issue in the bud before it could explode into a capital-eating and capitalwasting fireball. 43

The obvious solution to these sales force problems would be the kind of major shakeup Clinton instituted following the collapse of his health care plan and the drubbings Democrats took in the 1994 midterms, which brought in Panetta, Gergen and a handful of other old-hand pragmatists. Some will say it's too early to press the eject button, but you could just as easily argue that this is not a learning curve problem that is going to improve with time. Nevertheless, it's just not realistic to expect Obama to take emergency measures now, especially after the president unequivocally expressed his support for Geithner and the markets rallied around the rollout of the Treasury secretary's toxic asset plan. So I would bet on Obama to opt for addition over subtraction, and, instead of firing his top salesmen, to bring in more fine-tuned and effective reinforcements to pitch Congress, the press and the public on his behalf. Ideally, that would mean elevating someone like Paul Volcker, who is currently chairing Obama's recovery advisory group, into the public face of the president's recovery program. The former Fed chairman projects strength, confidence and legitimacy in ways that Geithner never could. He is not tainted by the original Bush bailout packages. And he is clearly the most credible spokesman on financial matters within the Obama orbit. Best of all, because Volcker is already on the team, his elevation would be seen as a shift, not a shakeup, and give Geithner breathing room to do his best wonk work. The president would also be well-served, as long as the financial crisis is going on, to take some of the burden off of Gibbs. One option: split the daily press briefings into two. Let Gibbs continue handling the general part of the briefing, and then bring in a specialist to handle the economic portion of the program. Someone like McCurry, the gold standard of recent White House spokesmen; or, as one Clinton alum suggested, Howard Schloss, a former assistant secretary for public affairs at the Treasury under Clinton and now the head of communications for the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Splitting the briefing duties may seem a little unconventional. But these are hardly normal times. Besides, you didn't see the White House press secretary doing the Pentagon briefings during the last two wars with Iraq. It's this general posture, more than any specific move, that will most help Obama reduce the drama, reassert his primacy and, not least of all, avoid repeating the worst mistakes of the Rumsfeld reign. We know too well what happens when a president sticks with the same ineffective team and the same failed strategy purely out of loyalty and stubborness. If this is no time for politics as usual, as the president has rightly said, it should be no time for political staffing as usual, either. Want policies that work? Get the army you need to win.

Kerry, Lugar Amendment To Restore Full Funding To President Obama's International Affairs Budget Washington, DC – Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry, on the Senate floor today introduced an amendment to restore four billion dollars in cuts to the President's international affairs budget. The senator's full remarks as prepared are below:

If the first years of the twenty-first century have taught us anything about national security, it is that in a globalized world, our problems are interconnected, and so—ultimately—is our security. We are endangered by weak and failed states as well as by strong states. We are endangered by diseases and climate change emissions half a world away. We are endangered when we allow chaos and crisis to create the conditions for ideologies of radical hatred and violence to take root. And it is clear to all that meeting these global challenges will require far more than our military: it will require a strengthened commitment to diplomacy and development. To put this as simply and bluntly as possible, that's why passing a robust foreign affairs budget is a matter not just of America's world leadership, but also of our national security. But don't take my word for it: Ask our Secretary of Defense, Bob Gates. He said: "What is clear to me is that there is a need for a dramatic increase in spending on the civilian instruments of national security – diplomacy, strategic communications, foreign assistance, civic action, and economic reconstruction and development." Ask our Secretary of State and former colleague, Hillary Clinton, who testified in her confirmation hearing that "the relatively small but important amount of money we do spend on foreign aid is in the best interests of the American people" and "promotes our national security and advances our interests and reflects our values."

When our soldiers and generals join our top diplomats in demanding increased civilian capacity and increased civilian funding—even in the midst of an economic crisis— that's when you know there is not just a growing consensus, but a real sense of urgency behind strengthening our civilian mission. Returning diplomacy and development to their rightful place cannot be achieved through words alone: It takes money to drive civilian foreign policy—and if it keeps us safer, as I believe it will, then that is money well spent. Full funding of the President's international affairs budget is a vital step toward greater civilian capacity, and I urge my colleagues to support it. That's why, along with Senators Lugar, Leahy, Voinovich, Durbin, Kaufman, Menendez, Dodd, Feinstein, Brown, Sanders, Lieberman, Casey, and Corker, I ask for approval of this amendment to restore $4 billion worth of funding to the President's FY 2010 international affairs budget request for the Function 150 Account. The offset here will come from the Function 920 Account. The reality is that right now, we are not doing nearly enough to invest in diplomacy and development. That's the finding of numerous studies conducted inside and outside of government. Funding for the Department of Defense is over half a trillion dollars. In 2008, the Army added about 7,000 soldiers to its total; that's more people than serve in the entire American Foreign Service. 1,100 Foreign Service officers could be hired for the cost of a single C-17 military cargo plane. And four billion dollars is less than two percent of what the government has given to AIG.

That is vital context for any discussion of the President's proposed increase in the international affairs budget. The President requested $53.8 billion in FY 2010 to fund next year's budget—an increase of 8%, or $4 billion, over last year's funding level of $49.8 billion. We must recognize just what a small share of our overall spending the President's international affairs budget comprises: 1.4% of the total FY 2010 Budget and only 6.8% of the "national security budget," which includes defense and homeland security. Even with this year's proposed increase in funding, the international affairs budget still represents just 0.35% of GDP. This sliver of our budget funds all State Department operations, foreign aid and foreign policy programs, our diplomatic programs, global health initiatives on HIV/AIDS, Malaria and Tuberculosis programs, and humanitarian assistance to help stabilize fragile states, reduce global poverty and assist refugees. Some have described the President's request as a 41% increase from last year's budget of $38 billion, but that simply isn't accurate: The figure of $38 billion doesn't include last year's supplemental appropriations, which raise the total to nearly $50 billion. The President's FY 2010 budget includes supplemental appropriations. That's why the actual increase is only $4 billion, or 8%. When we talk about changes in spending, we have to compare apples to apples. What's more, the President should be commended for following through on his pledge to enhance transparency and improve fiscal discipline by shifting supplemental appropriations into a single budget. This is a more straightforward way of doing business that doesn't seek to hide or massage spending figures by tucking extra spending into supplemental bills. That is why my colleague Senator Conrad, the Chairman of the Budget Committee, has been vocal in praising this new approach. But the real question we are facing today is what will this extra $4 billion get us? This $4 billion will bring vital foreign aid increases to programs in Pakistan and Afghanistan. This $4 billion will build civilian capacity and put our diplomats back on the front lines of American foreign policy. This $4 billion will provide life saving treatment for people with HIV/AIDS and supports broad prevention efforts that save lives every day. This $4 billion will help make people all over the world safer, and in the process, it will help keep America safer. Of course, some will claim that in the midst of a global economic crisis, we do not have the luxury of leading on the global stage. But this is precisely the moment when our investment is most needed—and it is also a moment when our leadership and our economic system face the greatest challenge. And ultimately, efforts in the developing world win us influence and respect, and they also contribute to the growth and stability of future consumers of our products and future trading partners. There is scarcely a corner of the globe where our efforts are not impacted by this budget: In Afghanistan and Pakistan, we must finally reverse years of neglect and drift. Imagine a nation as populous as Iraq, Afghanistan and North Korea—combined. A nation with a full arsenal of nuclear weapons, and ballistic missiles capable of delivering them anywhere in a thousand- kilometer range. Imagine a nation whose population is overwhelmingly moderate, overwhelmingly committed to democracy and rule of law—but deeply suspicious of its leadership, and of America's friendship. Imagine a nation in which Osama bin Laden and the leadership of Al Qaeda has found sanctuary for the past seven years—a haven from which they and their confederates have plotted and carried out attacks on their host country, on neighboring countries, and on sites around the globe. This nation could serve the keystone for a new, cooperative relationship between the Western and Muslim worlds—or become an epicenter for radicalism and violence on a cataclysmic scale. Now imagine that 17

America took a long, hard look at the status quo of our policy towards a nation at just such a crossroads—and decided to do nothing different. • We need a bold, new strategy for Pakistan: Our current path has not brought success, and simply tinkering around the margins is guaranteed to fail. We have little choice but to think big. That is why President Obama called on Congress to pass the Enhanced Partnership With Pakistan Act that Sen. Lugar and I will introduce very soon: It will authorize $1.5 billion annually, in order to help shape a new relationship with Pakistan. Without the full authorization of the President's budget, even a priority as vital as this one could be shunted aside. We are not the only ones vying for influence. You know who else understands clearly how powerful a weapon foreign aid can be? Iran does. That's why after its proxy Hezbollah provoked Israel's bombing of Lebanon, they painted the green Hezbollah flag on houses all over Lebanon—houses they plan to rebuild, largely with Iranian money. If we don't spend money on aid, we are surrendering the field to those who do. Nor can we afford to abandon our efforts against global AIDS. We know that PEPFAR has won America friends and allies across Africa and the world we know that AIDS contributes to failed states, not to mention incalculable human misery amongst the sick and dying and the orphans they leave behind—and that is why our national interest and our moral interest demand that we deliver on our commitments at a moment of crisis. Last year, both parties came together to authorize up to $48 billion over five years. Today, it is imperative that we do all we can to fund these programs. If we don't, we will freeze enrollment of patients into life-saving antiretroviral treatment. Meanwhile, prevention efforts –the most cost-effective way to stop AIDS from ravaging a society—will be the first ones cut. And tragically, we know what will happen next: more people will contract HIV, and more will die from AIDS-related illnesses. Refugees and human rights advocates also need our help. Economic support funds are vital to support those living inside countries with repressive regimes, like Burma and Zimbabwe. We know that refugees and displaced populations can be the spark for large-scale violence, and today we face that very threat from the millions displaced from homes in Iraq. Our Migration and Refugee Assistance is more important than ever to help us provide immediate, effective assistance to these vulnerable populations. Our international affairs budget will also have profound implications for another national security issue that will only grow in importance: the threat of global climate change. This December, the global community will be meeting in Copenhagen to create a new international agreement to address the urgent threat of global climate change. The science is screaming at us: we have no time to lose if we hope to avert catastrophe. If we want to persuade the developing nations of the world to do what is necessary and in all of our interests— we must help them to respond now to the impacts of the crisis that are already being felt globally—and to preemptively make the dramatic technological changes across their economies that this threat demands. Our leverage at the negotiating table in Copenhagen will depend directly on our ability to offer a strong financing package. Negotiators are meeting for an interim session this week in Bonn, and it is essential that we send a clear signal that the United States Congress is serious about financing to support the commitments the Obama Administration makes on the world stage—and serious about being part of the global solution to one of the greatest threats we face. We also need more diplomats and aid officers to troubleshoot on the front lines. The 2010 budget also marks the first year of a new commitment to a significant increase in the size of the Foreign Service at both the State Department and USAID. Today we are barely covering attrition rates. We have asked these agencies to expand their missions and operations into new theaters like Iraq and Afghanistan—and we need to expand their resources accordingly.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015

Even as we face long-term security threats such as climate change, we must also address the immediate and urgent threats of nuclear proliferation and nuclear terrorism. The President's budget provides additional nonproliferation and counter-proliferation funding to secure nuclear materials around the world, and to fund new and ongoing initiatives to build the counterterrorism capacity of partnering countries to do the same. That's how you leverage our civilian spending to keep America safe. Surveying the wide range of commitments and aspirations this budget addresses, it is clear that our challenge is immense. And yet, even as we confront a crisis here at home, we cannot afford to delay the task of restoring our leadership, returning to our best traditions of civilian outreach, and restoring our influence and authority. We cannot afford to come up short on our promises to allies, to vulnerable populations, and to the world. We cannot try to be a world leader on the cheap. If we fail to do our part to solve the world's problems, those problems will eventually find us here at home. From pandemics to climate change to failed states, this century's security challenges demand that a new level of commitment to diplomacy and development. With this relatively small investment, we are making significant strides toward restoring America's leadership role in the world. It will make the world safer, and it will make us safer. And so I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting the President's budget request. ###

THE PRESIDING OFFICER: WHO YIELDS TIME IN OPPOSITION TO THE AMENDMENT? THE SENATOR FROM NORTH DAKOTA.

MR. CONRAD: MR. PRESIDENT, WHEN THE SENATOR APPROACHED ME ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY, I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD STRONGLY OPPOSE THIS AMENDMENT. AND I TOLD HIM THAT BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN HARD TO PUT TOGETHER, AND WE'VE TRIED TO HAVE AN EQUAL SHARING OF SACRIFICE BETWEEN ALL OF THE SPENDING ELEMENTS OF A BUDGET. WE'VE TRIED TO DO IT WITH RESPECT TO DOMESTIC SPENDING, DEFENSE SPENDING. WE'VE TRIED TO DO IT WITH MANDATORY SPENDING. AND INTERNATIONAL IS A COMPONENT OF THE DISCRETIONARY SIDE OF THE BUDGET, SO WE THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY FAIR THAT THEY BE ASKED TO MAKE A CONTRIBUTION. NOW, WHEN I TOLD THE SENATOR YESTERDAY THAT I WOULD STRONGLY RESIST THIS AMENDMENT, I DID NOT KNOW, I WAS NOT AWARE THAT HE HAD AN OFFSET FOR THAT AM AMENDMENT, AND THAT DOES ALTER THE SITUATION. THAT MAKES IT MORE PALATABLE BECAUSE WE MAINTAIN THE SAME BOTTOM LINE. BUT IT DOES CONCERN ME THAT WE ARE UPSETTING THE BALANCE OF WHAT I THINK IS A FAIR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PAIN OF THE CUTBACKS THAT WE HAVE HAD TO MAKE. AND I WANT TO BE VERY CLEAR ABOUT THAT. I AM CONCERNED THAT, YOU KNOW, OTHER PARTS OF THE BUDGET ARE BEING ASKED TO TAKE REDUCTIONS FROM THE PRESIDENT'S REQUEST AND NOW INTERNATIONAL WILL NOT. SO I JUST WANT TO SAY, I FIND THAT TROUBLING. I UNDERSTAND ABSOLUTELY THE SUBSTANCE OF THE ARGUMENT THAT THE SENATOR IS MAKING, AND HE IS RIGHT TO MAKE IT. HE IS CHAIRMAN OF THE FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE, BUT I DO HOPE THAT COLLEAGUES THINK CAREFULLY ABOUT KIND OF THE EQUITY OF THE BURDEN HERE. THE EQUITY OF THE BURDEN. THE SECOND THING I WANT TO SAY WITH RESPECT TO THIS AMENDMENT IS IT USES A 920 OFFSET. AND WE CAME OUT OF THE COMMITTEE WITH ABOUT $7 BILLION IN SAVINGS IN 920. THAT'S GENERAL OVERHEAD OF ALL OF THE AGENCIES. IN OTHER WORDS, ITS A ACROSS THE BOARD -- IT'S ACROSS THE BOARD, GOES TO THEIR OVERHEAD ACCOUNTS AND COULD WE TAKE 19 UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015

SOMEWHAT MORE IN 920? YES, BUT NOT MUCH MORE. BUT NOT MUCH MORE. WE CAME OUT OF THE COMMITTEE AT $7 BILLION. I'VE ALWAYS TRIED TO STAY AT ABOUT $10 BILLION IN 920. THIS WOULD TAKE US TO $11 BILLION. AND SO I'M TROUBLED BY THAT AS WELL. WITH THAT SAID, I DON'T -- I DON'T INTEND TO OPPOSE THIS AMENDMENT, BUT I DO FIND IT TROUBLING ON THOSE TWO GROUNDS. ONE, IT DOES AFFECT THE FAIRNESS OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE PAIN, IF YOU WILL, OF THE CUTBACKS WE'VE HAD TO MAKE. AND, NUMBER TWO, IT ADDS TO THE SECTION 920 OFFSETS IN A WAY THAT, TO ME, TAKES IT A LITTLE PAST THE REALM OF WHAT'S REASONABLE. BUT WITH THAT SAID, I DON'T INTEND TO OPPOSE THIS AMENDMENT AND ASK COLLEAGUES TO VOTE AGAINST IT. I YIELD THE FLOOR.

Hi Hillary, you are doing an amazing job as our Secretary of State and we are all immensely proud of you. Really enjoyed your recent remarks regarding Afghanistan. Your words were spot on. Fyi, I will be in Kabul, Afghanistan from 7 thru 14 April and am being hosted by Flamed Wardak, the son of the Afghanistan Secretary of Defense. Looking forward to the visit. There is some exciting personal news that I wanted to share with you. Although it has not yet been announced, I wanted you to know that I recently interviewed with Cisco President ( John Chambers) and accepted a senior executive position ( effective 4 May ) to be the face and thought leader for Cisco in the field of "Intelligent Urbanization" with my focus area being on Physical Safety and Security. My wife (Faith) and I will live in Bangalore, India ( we are very excited ) and my area of responsibility will be the emerging markets of Asia, Middle East and Africa . Since I will operate from India that particular country will be a major focal point. The use of the Network to improve the quality of life of Millions of people in areas such as Education, Health Care and Security will be a major thrust of " Intelligent Urbanization". Faith and I are pumped up about our new overseas adventure and the chance to work for a world class company and a superb business leader like John Chambers. It is really a wonderful opportunity to positively impact many lives around the Globe. Hope to perhaps call on you for a few minutes before I head over to India. All the best and God Bless. Sincerely, Dave 21

Learning the hard way Mar 26th 2009 From The Economist print edition

Barack Obama may at last be getting a grip. But he still needs to show more leadership, at home and abroad

HILLARY CLINTON'S most effective quip, in her long struggle with Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination last year, was that the Oval Office is no place for on-the-job training. It went to the heart of the nagging worry about the silver-tongued young senator from Illinois: that he lacked even the slightest executive experience, and that in his brief career he had never really stood up to powerful interests, whether in his home city of Chicago or in the wider world. Might Mrs Clinton have been right about her foe? Not altogether. In foreign policy in particular Mr Obama has already done some commendable things. He has held out a sincere hand to Iran; he has ordered Guantanamo closed within a year; he has set himself firmly against torture. He has, as the world and this newspaper wanted, taken a less strident tone in dealing with friends and rivals alike. But at home Mr Obama has had a difficult start. His performance has been weaker than those who endorsed his candidacy, including this newspaper, had hoped. Many of his strongest supporters—liberal columnists, prominent donors, Democratic Party stalwarts—have started to question him. As for those not so beholden, polls show that independent voters again prefer Republicans to Democrats, a startling reversal of fortune in just a few weeks. Mr Obama's once-celestial approval ratings are about where George Bush's were at this stage in his awful presidency. Despite his resounding electoral victory, his solid majorities in both chambers of Congress and the obvious goodwill of the bulk of the electorate, Mr Obama has seemed curiously feeble.

Empty posts, weak policies

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760667 Date: 06/30/2015

There are two main reasons for this. The first is Mr Obama's failure to grapple as fast and as single-mindedly with the economy as he should have done. His stimulus package, though huge, was subcontracted to Congress, which did a mediocre job: too much of the money will arrive too late to be of help in the current crisis. His budget, though in some ways more honest than his predecessor's, is wildly optimistic. And he has taken too long to produce his plan for dealing with the trillions of dollars of toxic assets which fester on banks' balance-sheets. The failure to staff the Treasury is a shocking illustration of administrative drift. There are 23 slots at the department that need confirmation by the Senate, and only two have been filled. This is not the Senate's fault. Mr Obama has made a series of bad picks of people who have chosen or been forced to withdraw; and it was only this week that he announced his candidates for two of the department's four most senior posts. Filling such jobs is always a tortuous business in America, but Mr Obama has made it harder by insisting on a level of scrutiny far beyond anything previously attempted. Getting the Treasury team in place ought to have been his first priority. Second, Mr Obama has mishandled his relations with both sides in Congress. Though he campaigned as a centrist and promised an era of post-partisan government, that's not how he has behaved. His stimulus bill attracted only three Republican votes in the Senate and none in the House. This bodes ill for the passage of more difficult projects, such as his big plans for carbon-emissions control and health-care reform. Keeping those promises will soon start to bedevil the administration. The Republicans must take their share of the blame for the breakdown. But if Mr Obama had done a better job of selling his package, and had worked harder at making sure that Republicans were included in drafting it, they would have found it more difficult to oppose his plans. If Mr Obama cannot work with the Republicans, he needs to be certain that he controls his own party. Unfortunately, he seems unable to. Put bluntly, the Democrats are messing him around. They are pushing pro-trade-union legislation (notably a measure to get rid of secret ballots) even though he doesn't want them to do so; they have been roughing up the bankers even though it makes his task of fixing the economy much harder; they have stuffed his stimulus package and his appropriations bill with pork, even though this damages him and his party in the eyes of the electorate. Worst of all, he is letting them get away with it. Lead, dammit There are some signs that Mr Obama's administration is learning. This week the battered treasury secretary, Tim Geithner, has at last come up with a detailed plan to rescue the banks (see article and article). Its success is far from guaranteed, and the mood of Congress and the public has soured to the point where, should this plan fail, getting another one off the drawing-board will be exceedingly hard. But the plan at least demonstrates the administration's acceptance that it must work with the bankers, instead of riding the wave of popular opinion against them, if it is to repair America's economy. And it's not just in the domestic arena that Mr Obama has demonstrated his willingness to learn: on Iraq, he has intelligently recalibrated his views, coming up with a 7

plan for withdrawal that seeks to consolidate the gains in Iraq while limiting the costs to America. But Mr Obama has a long way to travel if he is to serve his country—and the world—as he should. Take the G20 meeting in London, to which he will head at the end of next week. The most important task for this would-be institution is to set itself firmly against protectionism at a time when most of its members are engaged in a game of creeping beggar-thy-neighbour. Yet how can Mr Obama lead the fight when he has just pandered to America's unions by sparking a minor trade war with Mexico? And how can he set a new course for NATO at its 60th-anniversary summit a few days later if he is appeasing his party with talk of leaving Afghanistan? In an accomplished press conference this week, Mr Obama reminded the world what an impressive politician he can be. He has a capacity to inspire that is unmatched abroad or at home. He holds a strong hand when it comes to the Democrats, many of whom owe their seats to his popularity at last year's election. Now he must play it.

Francisco, Just wanted to congratulate you and the entire team on a striking success. The Secretary's visit was jaw-dropping from the Mexican perspective. I have never seen such a positive reaction to a visit by a high ranking US government official. My personal favorite: Estamos hillarizados por estos dias. There is obviously also a "show me the money" aspect of the reaction, but even Mexico's newspaper of the traditionally anti-American left editorialized about "Good Clinton, Bad Napolitano". And inside President Calderon's circle they are thrilled with Wednesday's meeting. Many congratulations. OK, I will stop bothering you with my emails and allow you to get back to doing your job. warm regards, Pamela

Francisco Javier Gonzalez S/P (202) 647-2236 From: Pamela Starr Sent: Friday, March 20, 2009 2:38 PM To: Gonzalez, Francisco Subject: Follow-up on March 12 Dinner on Mexico

B6

Dear Francisco, I am sorry we did not have the chance to chat last week prior to the dinner, although I did see you at the end of the table so now at least have a face in my head to go with your name. I am writing you in the "follow-up" spirit that Sec. Clinton presented at the end of the dinner. I thought that a few insights gleaned from having been in Mexico all this week might be of use to the secretary, although after my breakfast with Leslie Bassett on Wednesday I am more convinced than ever that the Secretary is receiving high quality information about Mexico from her embassy here. So there may not be that much for me to add, nevertheless... I had breakfast Thursday with President Calderon's main foreign policy adviser, Rafael Fernandez de Castro, a very old and good friend. He made two points I think are worth relaying to you and Anne-Marie: 1) As I mentioned at dinner, Mexico is impatient and President Calderon frustrated (more so now after the trucking spat). To the extent that secretary Clinton can bring something tangible -- a sort of down payment on the kind of relationship we would like to build with Mexico -- it would help enormously. In that context, Rafael reminded me that President Calderon would very much like to be remembered as Mexico's first "Green President" (and is in something of a competition with the Mayor of mexico City on this score). 2) rafael also related a very useful conceptuilization of President Calderon the man that I think will be of use to you: he is a social conservative, Mexican nationalist (which by definition carries with it some anti-US sentiments) but also harbors profound liberal values -- he is a true democrat (not all Mexican politicians are) and a strong supporter of free trade and of a market economy that is largely free but regulated where required (which by definition carries some sympathy for US values and Democratic party values), it is this dichotomy that defines him as a person and makes him intelligible as a politician. I also met with two female Senators who suggested to me the possibility of arranging a meeting between Sec. Clinton and Mexico's female governors (2) and senators (about 20). In an obviously male-dominated society, they have been working hard to promotewomen's issues and they think that the symbolism of a meeting with the secretary would help their cause enormously. I agreed to pass the suggestion along in part becasue I am impressed by how these women -from political parties that otherwise find it very hard to collaborate -- are cooperating across party lines to promote women's issues, this kind of cross-party cooperation is much less common than it ought to be in Mexico's still formative democracy. And it is obviously in the US interest to encourage this kind of behavior and thereby help solidify democratic practices in Mexico. I know it is very late in your trip-planning to make this suggestion, but if there is not time for such a meeting this trip, maybe for the next one. I hope these musings were of some use. Warm regards, Pamela Pamela K. Starr, PhD

Cheryl Mills < Monday, April 6, 2009 5:06 AM williamsbarret1 Sullivan, Jacob J' FW: Key development opinion research summarized

Thought this was useful framing for us as we think of your messaging in general but also the larger framework document on which AMS is working. cdm

From: Tom Freedman [mailto Sent: Sunday, April 05, 2009 9:45 PM To: Cheryl Mills Subject: Key development opinion research summarized I've spent the last five years testing ideas and concepts to see how the development issue is understood by Americans and what are the challenges. I care deeply about this, I got into politics because I was frustrated by how little I could help living in a refugee camp on the Ethiopian-Somali border. The substantive policies obviously matter most, we got some right and some wrong in Clinton years, but the results of our bipartisan research may be useful. Here's my super-concise private summary: 1. The goal is help people be able to help themselves. The size of the program is important to advocates, but Americans want to know the ultimate goal is to be helping people be able to care for themselves (like grow enough food for Africa). 2. We all agree that kids should be a key focus and the best reason for any program is the moral importance. It's fine to acknowledge we do these programs for a variety of pragmatic reasons, but the most powerful reason is moral. It is the right thing to do. 3. We mostly all agree it is ok to spend money on these programs, but we should always note how we are fighting for reform too. The two concepts are not antagonists, but partners. And we are partners with other countries, this is not hand outs. There are mutual responsibilities. 4. Corruption is a major reason why people, rightly, think the programs don't work. 5. Even as folks are skeptical of the big promise, they still want us to try. Let me know if this is useful, we have a lot more insights if helpful. And I think this is the most important substantive issue -- how to get these policies right. Tom

SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON REMARKS TO THE HAITI DONORS CONFERENCE Washington, D.C. Tuesday, April 14, 2009

For some of us, Haiti is a neighbor. For others, a place of historic and cultural ties. For all of us, a test of collective commitment and resolve.

Some may ask why a small nation in the middle of the Caribbean Sea should command our attention today. Why countries in the Western Hemisphere, Europe, the Middle East and Asia should offer assistance to Haiti in the midst of a global economic downturn that has shaken us all. We're gathered at this conference because what happens in Haiti will resound far beyond the Caribbean and beyond the Americas. The success or failure of this one small nation has economic, social and political implications, not just for its 9 million citizens, but for a region whose future will be shaped by the strength of our commitment to achieve economic recovery, political progress and wider opportunity for people from Portland to Porto Alegre to Port-au-Prince. The United States is here, first and foremost, because it is the right thing to do for our neighbor and friend. Our ties to Haiti reach back to the early years of both our nations and have endured for generations-through our struggles for independence; through the defeat of slavery in Haiti, which inspired slaves and abolitionists in the U.S. to press on with their fight for freedom; and more recently, through the hundreds of thousands of Haitians who emigrated to the United States and strengthened it through their contributions in politics, business, science, sports and culture-the benefits of which I experienced firsthand as a senator representing New York. We are also here because we are committed to creating a hemisphere in which every nation-no matter their present level of wealth or current political circumstances-is moving in the same direction, toward greater peace, prosperity, freedom and opportunity. With Haiti, we have the chance through global cooperation and collaboration to stand in solidarity with a people who are seeking to march forward. A nation where small investments and assistance from other countries are beginning to reap dividends in economic growth, wider access to health care, stronger governmental institutions, greater safety and security-and the higher quality of life that results when the material conditions of people's lives improve. Today, Haiti is the poorest nation in the hemisphere, with one of the region's biggest gaps between the haves and havenots. But in 2006, Haiti had its highest economic growth since the 1990s. It is on track to reach the completion point for the IMF's Heavily Indebted Poor Countries Initiative in the next few months, which means significant debt relief is on the UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015

way, which will free up approximately $4 million a month-money that Haiti can invest directly in improving the lives of its people and building a future of self-sufficiency and confidence. Haiti has the region's highest rate of HIV/AIDS, the highest rate of maternal mortality, and the highest rate of child mortality. But the numbers of HIV infections and child and maternal deaths are all coming down.

Not long ago, Haiti endured three decades of a brutal dictatorship. But the national and presidential elections in 2006 jump-started Haiti's democracy, and President Preval and Prime Minister Pierre Louis are seeking to maintain a strong commitment to democratic governance, which will take another step forward on Sunday with elections for the Senate. Like many nations, including the United States, Haiti struggles against crime, particularly the global scourge of drug trafficking. But reforms to improve policing, strengthen the justice system and fight corruption are now underway, and a peacekeeping force led by Brazil has helped bring stability to many Haitian communities. Haiti made these strides with help from its own citizens and many of the nations and institutions represented here today. And this progress did not come only through government-to-government partnerships, but also through links among businesses, universities, NG0s, religious and cultural groups, and individuals-the full range of resources and relationships, which is the heart of smart power. That trajectory of progress has been undermined by the combined winds of hurricanes and a global economic recession. Haiti is in danger of stalling. This conference gives us an opportunity to reignite its path to progress and work as a team-with Haiti at the helm-to advance a comprehensive, long-term strategy for Haiti's growth, by coordinating hemispheric and international efforts, targeting clear goals, and deploying our diverse skills and resources efficiently and effectively. President Preval and Prime Minister Pierre Louis have identified what help Haiti needs to get back on track. With these priorities as our guide and Haiti as our partner, we can make high-impact investments that will help lay the foundation for stronger democratic institutions, a vibrant civil society, and an open market economy that creates more stability, attracts international investment, and offers more jobs and wider economic opportunities for Haiti and our region as a whole. Now is the time to step up our investment in Haiti-not because the situation is so dire, but because the consequences of inaction could lead to significantly larger costs in both human and financial terms down the road. With $100, we can pay for a year of schooling for one Haitian child or immunize five. That's a tiny fraction of the cost of solving these problems if they escalate over time. The United States will target our support toward three areas that the Haitian government has requested, which are aimed at promoting conditions that are essential for national and regional progress. First, the Haitian people need to be secure. They must be able to travel safely to work and school and participate in the civic lives of their communities without fear of violence. Second, the country needs stronger infrastructure, particularly roads, which are the circulatory system of any robust economy. Meanwhile, the people of Haiti are ready to work, but jobs are in short supply. We can accomplish two things at once by putting people to work building roads and other infrastructure throughout Haiti. And third, last year's hurricanes blew a hole in the government's budget. Now Haiti is facing a huge deficit, which will make it harder to provide services in the short-term or fund major projects in the long-term. Their debt obligations further constrain their ability to lay the groundwork for the future. On each of these issues-security, jobs and infrastructure, and debt relief-the United States is lending its assistance and seeking to partner with other nations to maximize our collective impact.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015

First, security. Effective international partnerships have already helped stem violence and improve security in Haiti. Cite Soleil, for example, was a no-man's-land for years, but today, violence has subsided and a new sense of freedom is felt in the streets. The Haitian National Police have been supported in their work by the UN peacekeeping operation in Haiti, which is the first in the hemisphere in which Latin American and Caribbean nations have participated. Brazil has led the mission with determination and skill. This level of engagement and collaboration is a major step forward for our region. But criminal networks operating in Haiti have not been eliminated. Haiti continues to fight drug traffickers who have made this country a distribution point for illegal drugs headed to the United States, Canada and Europe. Drug trafficking is a problem that involves many nations, all of which have a role to play in ending this deadly trade. That includes the United States. We will give $2 million to fight drug trafficking in Haiti through the Merida Initiative, a plan conceived by Mexico, Central America and the United States. This money will fund a secure communications network for the Haitian police; provide a maritime base, vehicles and operational support for police drug units; provide training to promote cross-border cooperation between Haiti and the Dominican Republic; and sharpen the investigation and prosecution of drug crimes. Once security is established, opportunity can take root. Nations from Canada to Spain to Japan offered generous assistance to help repair the damage from last year's storms. Now it is time to take the next step-to move beyond peacekeeping and disaster relief to long-term reconstruction and development. Haiti has the highest unemployment rate in the hemisphere; 70 percent of its people don't have jobs. It also has one of the region's highest population growth rates. Together, these trends have created what one development expert has called a "youth tsunami"-nearly 1 million youths are expected to come into the job market in the next five years. To spur the creation of jobs, the United States passed the HOPE Act in 2006, to give garments made in Haiti tariff-free access to the U.S. market. Last October, we extended this trade preference for another decade. Apparel is one of the largest sectors in Haiti's economy. We see great potential for job creation in this field, and we are gratified by Brazil's interest in supporting the Haitian apparel industry as well. But to build a diversified economy, Haiti needs more than trade deals. It also needs the infrastructure to support the flow of goods and services. The roads in Haiti are beyond inadequate; many communities are isolated by the lack of a passable road, which prevents people from holding jobs, children from going to school, and farmers from bringing their crops to market. Better roads could facilitate greater trade and bring more Haitians into the global economy. Haiti also needs better roads in tourist areas, to promote that sector of the economy. Other urgent infrastructure needs include digging water catchments to prevent floods, completing a garment workers' training center, and creating canals to help irrigation. As part of the $287 million in non-emergency assistance we will provide to Haiti this year, we have authorized $20 million in aid to generate jobs, to help people put their skills to work building their country's future. We look forward to working with Haiti to distribute that money quickly and effectively, to trigger a virtuous circle for long-term economic growth. All the fiscal responsibility in the world can't prevent a natural disaster. The hurricanes didn't just wash away crops and houses; they also washed away months of government planning for the future. Haiti is facing an approximately $50 million budget deficit, which could undermine Haiti's long-term ambitions as well as services that people depend on to survive.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015

The United States will provide $20 million to pay Haiti's upcoming debt service obligations, to free Haiti to use its resources to fill that budget gap. [There is a fourth urgent need that the United States is committed to helping Haiti resolve. The combined effect of rising food prices globally and the destruction of crops by the hurricanes have exposed millions of Haitians to malnutrition and its destructive effects on health and productivity. Malnourished people are often too weak to work; chronically hungry children struggle to learn in school. Food insecurity is not only a source of suffering, but a direct threat to economic growth and global stability. The United States will provide a $15-million in-kind contribution of food to help Haiti as it continues to rebuild. ] These are some of the ways in which the United States is ready to partner with Haiti and other nations. But there are additional pieces of the larger mission that need support-from helping Haiti adapt to climate change so future hurricanes won't claim thousands of lives; to strengthening health systems; promoting sustainable agriculture; and developing civil society. This work is not only a matter for governments, but also a mission for our people. Here in the U.S., I have heard from many individuals and groups who care about Haiti and want to help it develop but don't know how to invest their time and money in a way that will make a real impact. We should think creatively about helping people outside government get involved in a meaningful way with Haiti's future. Our people are our most valuable resource, and their potential to help in places like Haiti has not yet been tapped. We know from empirical data that small investments go a long way. This is something I've seen for myself in my own visits to Haiti. I traveled there with my husband shortly after our wedding, and again years later as First Lady. I met a doctor who had emigrated to the United States and became a U.S. Air Force Colonel, but returned to his home town of Pignon to run a center for health, women's literacy and microcredit. He and his staff had few resources, but they offered a comprehensive range of services to thousands of clients. I visited a family-planning clinic where young people were trained to educate their peers about how to protect their health and prevent teen pregnancy. And I met with women from a group called Women in Democracy. These women had attended a global conference on women's leadership in Montevideo, Uruguay, and when they returned home, they created this organization to support Haitian women running for office. Eleven years later, their organization is larger and stronger than ever, and so is their mission. In addition to supporting women candidates, they also hold trade fairs for women entrepreneurs, run civic education programs to teach women their rights, support women journalists, and build connections between women throughout the Caribbean. These Haitian women remind us that we will never achieve real progress if we leave millions of people behind. And they demonstrate a powerful commitment on the part of the Haitian people to participate in and lead their nation's recovery. Our role is to support their work however we can, and to demonstrate through our actions our belief that their future is as important as our own. What happens next in Haiti will send a message to the world about the power of collaboration on behalf of every poor nation that has worked hard to earn a foothold in the global economy but has tumbled in recent months. On behalf of every man and woman in the hemisphere, from the northern expanses of Canada to the southern tip of Argentina, who is working harder than ever with fewer resources and for smaller rewards. and the children whose futures have been jeopardized by forces far beyond their control. let us prove our commitment to an economic recovery that reaches not only the citizens of our individual nations but all people everywhere.

School of Second, Chances The teachers at Oak Hill Academy approach their jobs with the faith that even the most hardened juvenile delinquents can achieve -- and the knowledge that many still won't By Karen Houppert Sunday, April 12, 2009; W18

The six teenage boys, incarcerated at the District's Oak Hill juvenile detention facility in Laurel file into their classroom after lunch one late January afternoon. They are surprised to see strangers -- five women and two men -- sitting in the chairs that the boys typically occupy. The students find some empty seats and shrug out of their matching brown coats and mismatched scarves. They are curious about the visitors in a lean-back, fold-your-arms, prove-it kind of way. "I'm James Forman," begins a 40-something man. "I'm a professor at Georgetown Law School and -- " "You related to the James Forman?" interrupts 17-year-old Carleto Bailey. "I'm James Forman Jr." "That your father? James Forman your dad?" Carleto demands. "Yes, I " "Wasn't he some big civil rights guy? NAACP? Or SNCC?" "SNCC," Forman says, seemingly surprised that Carleto has heard of his father, who was executive secretary of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee for years in the 1960s before becoming active with the Black Panthers.

"He's a good guy," Carleto continues. "You tell him that." Forman smiles. "He passed a few years ago, but he would be happy to hear this," the professor says. He scans the room. The Oak Hill students, all African American, are dressed identically in khaki pants and royal-blue polo shirts. They have chosen seats on the edges of the room and, after sitting down, have pushed their chairs back as far as possible against the wall. Forman's Georgetown law students -- African American, Arab, Latino, Caucasian -- are in jeans and sweaters. They lean forward, intent and maybe a little bit nervous. "I teach a class on juvenile justice at the law school," Forman continues. "And I thought this would be a really good way for law students to learn about juvenile justice. There is a certain amount you can learn from reading, but you also need to see and experience things. So I thought they would learn a lot from coming out here and hearing about your experiences." Carleto raises an eyebrow. This is a new one. "And the benefit for you is that they know things about the law that you don't. Ya'll have certain things you know. They have certain things they know. It can be a learning opportunity for everybody." Forman suggests they go around the room and share their names and an interesting fact about themselves. Dead silence. He smiles encouragingly. "My name is James Forman, and I helped to start this organization, See Forever, that now runs your school," he says. Carleto, who has been leaning back on the two rear legs of his chair, brings it down with a bang that sends his short dreads swinging forward and his black plastic rectangular glasses sliding down his nose. A few Georgetown students jump. He looks out over the top of his glasses. "My name's Carleto Bailey," he says. "My interesting fact is that I'm funny. /I He gives a wide smile of bright white teeth. The Georgetown students laugh. Oak Hill student Ashawntea Henderson, 17, who sits next to him, rolls his eyes. But Carleto's not done: "And I'm smart." But as it turns out, these Georgetown folks -- like his other teachers at Oak Hill Academy -- aren't going to accept Carleto's assertion at face value. They want more than good grades, more than the right answers on a multiple-choice test. They want him to prove that he can think. Forman shows the group an excerpt of a film about juveniles incarcerated at New York's Rikers Island. Afterward, the law students want to know whether a label makes a difference. It's a hard question. "Inmates? Residents? Scholars?" one of them asks. "Does it matter what you're called?" Carleto studies the woman's face to discern what she wants to hear back. It is blank. He struggles. "Not so much," he says, finally. He looks at her. She seems unconvinced. He worries that he has given the wrong answer and tries again. "Back in the community, there are certain [police] patrols in the neighborhood who say, 'I know what you're up to.' When we come home, some of us are trying to do right, but they basically criticize us because you're already labeled."

"What are the labels?" Forman asks. This one is easy for Carleto. He sinks down in his chair and throws it out. "Trouble," he says. ***

Carleto Bailey is trouble. He is also, as he rightly noted, smart. But he has arrived at Oak Hill Academy with a few disadvantages: He has been poorly educated in the D.C. public schools, was frequently truant and has had multiple run-ins with the law. The D.C. Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services, which runs Oak Hill, won't release information on the specific crime that landed Carleto here because he is still a juvenile, but we do know this is Carleto's second time at the detention center. His academic knowledge is spotty at best. He can tell you who James Forman is, but not where the comma falls in a letter's greeting. ("Dear, Fidel" he writes in a mock letter to Castro during English class.) He is a fairly typical Oak Hill "scholar." And, once upon a time, he would have been written off But today, staff at the fledgling Oak Hill Academy are determined to view the kids' captive time here as a window of opportunity to fill in some of the gaping holes in their education. Part of the reform initiative of Vincent Schiraldi, director of Youth Rehabilitation Services, the school opened its doors only last year and takes a unique approach to teaching delinquent youth. What would happen, Oak Hill Academy co-founders Forman and David Domenici wondered, if you seduced these kids with content that was meaningful to them? What would happen if they had lots of good, caring teachers in small classrooms? What if one assumed the kids could learn -- and behaved as such? In other words, what would happen if the District's most challenged students got a private school education, albeit on a campus of a decidedly different nature? "The bottom line," says Domenici, "is that the kids most at risk need the highest quality programming, but they've gotten the worst." It is this conviction that drove Domenici, who is also the school's principal, and Forman to create three public charter schools for underprivileged and troubled students in the District over the past 11 years. Called the Maya Angelou schools, the two high schools and middle school attack educational deficiencies from all angles. Students attend small classes taught by specially trained staff. The high school day stretches from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., with three meals provided. Some kids, whose home lives prove too chaotic for study, are offered supervised housing in the neighborhood. And it works. Last year, 93 percent of Maya Angelou graduates were accepted into two- or four-year colleges, Domenici says. (According to the District's Office of the State Superintendent of Education, 29 percent of students who enter ninth grade in D.C. public schools and city charter schools enroll in postsecondary educational programs within 18 months of graduating high school.) It is a good model. But even though Domenici and Forman were used to teaching court-involved youth -- about 40 percent of Maya Angelou students had spent some time at Oak Hill -- working inside the gates posed a new set of challenges. Youth Rehabilitation Services has been under a court monitor for 23 years due in part to a history of abuse and poor conditions. When Schiraldi took over the department in 2005 and began his reform efforts by implementing a less punitive and more therapeutic detention model at Oak Hill, he saw immediately that changing the school was essential. "How could I look at my staff at Oak Hill and say we are about excellence when the kids were sitting in a school that was a total waste of time from 9 to 3 every day?" Schiraldi says. Kids sat and watched movies all day. Little, if any teaching was going on, Schiraldi says. "It was a miserable, miserable school." Schiraldi immediately began lobbying the D.C. Board of Education hard to hire someone new to operate the school, and as soon as he got the okay, he put out a request for proposals. Domenici and Forman submitted a UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760796 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760796 Date: 06/30/2015

plan that Schiraldi says "blew the other ones out of the water," and in 2007 were awarded a $12 million contract to run the school for the next three years. Domenici's and Forman's partnership is a somewhat unlikely one. Domenici is the son of former New Mexico Republican senator Pete Domenici. He went to Stanford Law School, worked in corporate law for a few years and then gave it up to teach and work with teen delinquents. Forman is the grandson of Jessica Mitford, who was the daughter of a British baron and a celebrated civil rights activist and journalist. Forman, who graduated from Yale Law School, worked as a law clerk for Justice Sandra Day O'Connor and as a D.C. public defender. After seeing how few good schooling options his teenage clients had, he joined forces with Domenici, whom he met through a mutual friend, to start an independent school for 20 students in 1997. A year later, it became part of the first Maya Angelou public charter school. At Oak Hill Academy, principal Domenici fights with an occasionally maddening bureaucracy for basics: functioning boilers, permission for a college tour for a group of six students, classes uninterrupted by corrections staff who sometimes will call three-quarters of the students out in the middle of class to take their meds. Forman is chairman of the Maya Angelou Public Charter School Board of Directors and board member of its parent group, the See Forever Foundation. He attacks hurdles from the other side, fundraising and advocating for juvenile justice reform. "When David came out to run the school here, it was like "Ocean's 12": Go find all the people you can trust from your previous mission," Forman jokes. That included past colleagues and even a few Maya Angelou graduates. Samantha Crandal Simpore, who had been at a then-coed Oak Hill herself when she was 15 on an accessory assault charge, went to a Maya Angelou school and now runs the Oak Hill Academy welcome center. "I tell them, I was here, too," Simpore says. She tells each new student about how she was 17 years old and didn't know her multiplication tables, how she rode the bus to school each day hooked up to her Walkman, hoping no one knew she was listening to a recitation of times tables. "I say: 'You're at an intersection in your life. You know what's down the street behind you. Nothing you can do about that. But you have a choice about what's up the road ahead.'" Many of the 90 Oak Hill students, ranging in age from 14 to 19, come in performing way below grade level, and nearly half have been diagnosed with learning disabilities. They are at Oak Hill for an average of 10 months, cycling in and out on a schedule that has nothing to do with a nine-month academic year. Out of necessity, they are grouped according to the cell blocks they live on to keep opposing gangs separate. Thirteen-year-olds can be in classes with 18-year-olds. More than half have been committed to Oak Hill for violent felonies. Fights are common. (Before the month is out, Carleto will get into a fistfight in the hallway that will delay his release date.) Through the use of small classes -- typically five to 14 teens work with one teacher, a teaching assistant and a guard -- the school organizes the curriculum around four-week themes designed to pique students' curiosity and get them to think critically about the nature of democracy, social justiCe and their role in the world. For example, during the Relationship theme, students parse the types of relationships ranging from those between humans and the natural world (ancient river civilizations) to those between individuals and groups (Pharaohs and their subjects) to those between humans and ideas (liberation theology). At the same time, in English class, students will be working on the standard five-paragraph essay via the guiding question: "Why do relationships matter, and how can relationships be both good and bad for people?" With the current unit, Change, the D.C. public school system's learning standards are woven into the social studies curriculum under loose headings such as "Changes in the Way Humans Think About the World and Their Place in It," which becomes a way of introducing the scientific revolution, the Enlightenment and the Magna Carta. It's a philosophy that emphasizes learning through making cross-discipline connections long popular in affluent, progressive schools but typically eschewed in schools for underprivileged kids, where rote learning and a return to such basics often rule.

Oak Hill Academy has also created a course called Advocacy, which the Georgetown law students are coteaching, emphasizing this month's theme. Domenici believes learning how the law works in a democracy "is essential to teaching them to be good citizens." "We always believed that one of our roles should be to help kids self-advocate or advocate on behalf of a community," Domenici says. "We think this is a good skill for students individually and also one that our democracy demands." But this is an ambitious agenda, and Oak Hill Academy faces significant obstacles. Can you teach teens to think critically when they're missing the basic underpinnings of education? How do you teach empowerment in a setting that demands rigid compliance to keep kids from misbehaving? Although he sometimes grows discouraged, Domenici does his best to buoy his staff members when they learn that one of their most promising students got into a fight on the unit or "graduated" from the program only to commit another crime and be sent back. "I talk to staff about the fact that, day to day, our job is to do the absolute best work you can in the domain that is within your control," he says, reminding them that they don't control all the pieces of the puzzle. "And if you do that well, you have done the moral and just thing." His staff members must keep the faith while straddling what are to them two equally potent realities: First, knowledge is power, and through possessing it, every student is capable of success. And, absent the right support, failure lurks right around the corner. It sounds like this: "I think Carleto has a good chance of finishing high school and going on to college," Domenici says. Pause. "Also, he is highly at risk of not doing that." ***

It is a cold day in late January, and Oak Hill is in the midst of the four-week session on change. Dressed in jeans, a blue shirt and a gray corduroy jacket (the heat's not working), Oak Hill social studies teacher John Adams paces around the room and then stops to bend over Carleto, who is doodling on a piece of paper at his desk. "Pay attention," he says, taking Carleto's pencil. "Carleto, what is today's essential question?" "What is historical change, and how is it different from other kinds of change?" Carleto says, reading from the board where Adams has scrawled his topic. "Yes," Adams says. He ignores a student who is wandering around the room aimlessly, until the student snatches a hat off a classmate and tosses it toward the hallway. A youth development specialist, which is how corrections guards are referred to under Schiraldi, appears to be deeply engrossed in a magazine in the back of the room. But she snatches the hat from mid-air, scowls at the disruptive student and tucks the hat in her pocket. "Please sit," Adams tells the student. Not quite sitting, not quite standing, the student perches on the edge of Adams's desk. Good enough. Adams continues: "What's the difference between personal change and historical change?" Silence. "Anybody? UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760796 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760796 Date: 06/30/2015

More silence. "Ashawntea?" "Historical change is like a revolution," Ashawntea says. Adams throws out a list of changes -- getting a raise in salary, moving to a new house, the election of President Obama -- and Carleto accurately sorts the changes into micro and macro, personal and historical. "Obama's campaign was all about change," Adams says. "Do you think he is talking historical change?" He wants the students to think about the president, who has been in office now for two days. What might his first 100 days look like? he asks the students. "What advice would you offer him?" Carleto looks stumped. "Just throw out some ideas," Adams prompts. He tells the students that they are going to craft their own letters to the president, advising him on how to set his agenda for change. Carleto slaps his pencil down on the desk. "Obama's not reading our letters," he says. He folds his arms across his chest, skeptical that the president will lay eyes on this letter -- and skeptical, perhaps, that the teachers really want to hear his ideas. ***

Later, Carleto will acknowledge that he knows quite a bit about the president, as he is reading Barack Obama's "Dreams From My Father." "It started off as a good book, but it got excellent," he says. He struggles hard to articulate the book's themes and appeal. "I don't know how to put it," he says finally, "but growing up with -- no disrespect, but -- a Caucasian mom and an African father, he still made it through." Sitting in a guard's room off the gym on a February evening, the echoing sound of classmates bouncing basketballs around the cavernous gym, Carleto goes on to tell his own possibly apocryphal story. "As a child, he was very fun, happy -- as far as kindergarten through sixth grade. Starting in first grade, he was on the honor roll and was also making it to school every day," he says, beginning in third person, but quickly lapsing into first. "In the late stages of middle school; at the end of eighth grade, I started smoking weed, doing stuff I wasn't supposed to be doing." He takes full responsibility. "No one peer-pressured me or anything. I was liking what was going on when I was high," he explains. He, like almost all the teens at Oak Hill, denies being involved in a gang. Still, Carleto says that his best friend since elementary school was killed in 10th grade in "a neighborhood thing." "Nowadays, anyone can just ride up on you, and you can be mistaken for someone else and be shot," he says, explaining that his buddy was shot because of a "miscommunication." "It wasn't intended for us," he says, insisting that he and his friend, nicknamed "Smoke," were just waiting for the bus. Then he announces, "I don't want to talk about it." So he doesn't, though it clearly haunts him: He will doodle "R.I.P. Smoke" on the cover of his blue folder or on a piece of loose-leaf paper or the comer of the chalkboard. He's happy to talk about Oak Hill Academy though, where he has a 3.5 grade-point average after six months. (Domenici says Carleto is in the top 25 percent of students at Oak Hill and tests fairly high on assessments.) Carleto likes the school even though it is a bit easy for him, being a senior in with freshman. He complains that UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760796 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760796 Date: 06/30/2015

the classes are too short and that the guards are always interrupting them to move on just when the class is getting warmed up. That really bugs him, but he doesn't say much. He says that he will be leaving Oak Hill in two months and intends to finish his schooling at Oak Hill's transition center in the District, from which he says he will graduate this June. When he gets out, there are a couple of things he wants to do right off, he says. First, he intends to see his girlfriend, then go out to a restaurant and then go to "the Adidas shop in Georgetown, where my mom will get me some stuff-- and my dad, too." He says his mom was pretty upset when he got arrested and sent to Oak Hill. "She was. . . I'm going to say she was kind of like surprised at my actions, what I done," Carleto says. "You know how they say 'Whatever hides in the dark, comes out?'. . . She was not ashamed of me, but disappointed in me." Meanwhile, she makes the long, 45-minute trek from the District to Laurel to visit. "Every weekend, both days!" he says. He is alternately vague and specific when he describes his family life. He has four brothers -- ages 27, 23, 16 and 11 -- and reports that he and his two younger brothers live with his mom. He says his mom works as a secretary, but he struggles to remember where. "She was working with, what's that program downtown by the Washington Monument, dealing with Smokey the Bear?. . . I'm trying to think. It's right by the Holocaust Museum. It's a brick building. She works there." Later, Carleto's school case worker, Essence Jones, will offer a somewhat different account of Carleto's life. Although Carleto is in 12th grade, he will not graduate in June as he says. He is still six credits shy, Jones says. And it will be at least three months -- not two -- before his release. Carleto's father is not part of his life, Jones says. The teenager had been living with his aunt before coming to Oak Hill. His mother, who has a rap sheet dating to 1982, has been in and out of jail for years, arrested repeatedly for a string of felonies and misdemeanors, including possession and distribution of drugs, as well as prostitution. She has been in prison since 2005, serving three consecutive sentences totaling seven years for assault with a dangerous weapon, attempted distribution of cocaine and violation of bail. She is not visiting Carleto on weekends. ***

By the end of February, still in the midst of the unit on change, the Oak Hill teens file into their advocacy class, jostling each other, edgy. It is unseasonably warm outside, and they do not want to be here. Reluctantly they take their seats, and Carleto positions himself so that he can see the patch of brown grass and mud in the prison yard, visible through the door someone has wedged open. Occasionally, a breeze wafts into the room. Today, the law students decide to tackle the topic of disproportionate minority confinement. If youths of color are 35 percent of the general population in the United States, but 62 percent of the prison population, this is disproportionate minority confinement, the law students explain. They refer the teens to a handout each has on the desk in front of him, an article excerpt from New American Media, "Racism of the Juvenile Justice System Revealed," to explain that this isn't simply because people of color commit more crimes: "African-American youths are 4.5 times more likely, and Latinos 2.3 times more likely, than white youths to be detained for identical offenses. About half of white teenagers arrested on a drug charge go home without being formally charged and drawn into the system. Only one-quarter of black teens arrested on drug charges catch a similar break." Although youth of color are 100 percent of Oak Hill's population of inmates and, indeed, 100 percent of all 721 juvenile delinquents currently committed to Youth Rehabilitation Services care in settings across the city, disproportionate minority confinement is a hard concept for the teens to grasp. Georgetown student Abby Fee tries a pie graph, a bar graph, a sketch of disproportionate Xs and Os. Blank stares.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760796 Date: 06/30/2015

Then it slowly dawns on Ashawntea what they're talking about. "Hey," he says, suddenly sitting forward. "They're switched around! Basically, there's more of us juveniles in prison than white juveniles -- even though there's more of them." "Yes," Fee says. "So the population outside the system looks a lot different from that inside the system." Ashavvntea sits back in his chair to mull this over. Fee and the other law students move the teens from the statistics to a speculative discussion about the reasons behind these figures. They have prepared a role-playing game to coax the teens into thinking about this from different perspectives. Then, they want the students to practice advocating for change. "So, we're going to have three roles," Fee says, dividing the teens into pairs. "One group is a 15-year-old; one group is playing a math teacher; and one group is playing a city council member." Carleto and his partner learn that they are to play a city council member who is preparing a presentation on reforming the police department. Carleto doesn't want to be a city council member. He doesn't even want to be here today. He wraps and unwraps his pencil in the bottom of his T-shirt. He puts his glasses on, then takes them off. "How could you maintain better relationships" with police? Fee asks, settling herself into a chair to help Carleto and his partner work through this. Carleto throws his pencil down on the table. Won't answer. She asks again. Silence. Finally, he offers a sullen challenge. "Stop harassing people for no reason?" "How do you want them to treat people?" "Equally," he says. He picks up the pencil and tap, tat, taps it on the desk. Fee tries to get him to be more specific. "Don't arrest for small problems. Instead, take them home, and tell your family what you're doing," Carleto's partner says, unconsciously slipping into second person. "And how do you think they can help crime be stopped or decreased in general?" Fee prods. A long pause. Could be their minds are whirring busily; could be they're spacing out. Fee, a teacher before enrolling at Georgetown, takes it in stride. She taps the paper a couple of times and repeats the question. "Don't have 10 or 15 cars patrolling and then have an area where you barely see a police car," Carleto says. "Patrol each ward equally?" asks Fee. Carleto writes that down, then adds: "I see a lot of cruel things they done that ain't right." Fee nods, encourages him to write it down. Carleto's partner grabs the pencil and speaks as he writes. "The majority of police shouldn't carry guns. I could say, 'The majority of police are racist.'" "But how would you fix that?" Fee. prods.

"A camera on their car to catch them if they're doing it -- but a secret one," Carleto suggests. He sits up straighter in his chair. "And don't just pull over people because they're black. They can say anything, that's the reason why I pulled you over, because your headlights are off or whatever." Suddenly, Carleto is on a roll, and he rattles off a list of improvements. "Call to order of the city council," says Georgetown student Dania Ayoubi. Carleto and his partner stand in the front of the class. "Hello, I'm Mr. Jones, and I am a city councilman," Carleto says, glancing down at his paper and twisting the tail of his shirt with his free hand. "We have some complaints from the different communities and wards about police, and these are some of our suggestions about cracking down on officers." He sounds nervous as he begins the list. "Stop harassing minorities and other ethnic youths, and treat them equal to the same race that you are. Also, police don't arrest if there is a situation at the school like a fight or anything. I feel they should not be arrested but taken home. Then tell their parents why this happened and what the reason was for being stopped by the police." He moves briskly through the suggestions and twice, tentatively, tries actually making eye contact with the audience. In conclusion, he says, "verbally abusing" youth won't be tolerated any more. "Basically, we want to crack down on the officers and have them removed, if so." Another pair of students rises to begin a presentation, but the teens are interrupted by the crackle of a guard's walkie-talkie. "Time to go!" the guard announces. The law students are surprised -- they are not quite done -- but politely acquiesce. "Wait!" Ashawntea says, standing up. "We got 10 more minutes." "It will take you five minutes to get your stuff together and get your coats on," the guard says. "But we have 10 minutes!" Carleto insists. He and Ashawntea sit back down and fold their arms. "It's only 2:20. We got 10 more minutes still." The guard takes a beat, then shrugs and concedes Carleto's point. He goes back out into the hall to wait. Carleto shoots Ashawntea a look of surprise. His advocacy worked. "Yesss!" Ashawntea hisses under his breath. Karen Houppert is a contributing writer for the Magazine. She can be reached at me@karenhouppert corn.

As elated as everyone is over the splendid outcome of the Maersk Alabama hijacking case, as I had predicted, in today's news, it is reported that four additional vessels were attacked and now Terrorists are holding some 60 hostages. Before anyone, does anything regarding Somalia, may I make the following comments and observations. What is going on in the Gulf of Aden is as an organized criminal enterprise for profit. There are some 250 hostages being held and they are being kept as well as they can be under the circumstances because the terrorists are expecting a payday out of this. As soon as they see any form of direct Military action in the northeast at the mouth of the Gulf of Aden, I can assure you more Americans will be abducted, and we will see another series of video beheadings under a Democratic watch. I would recommend that the Secretary encourage the United Nations to create an International Maritime Security Working Group. Since the Shipping Industry has already absorbed something like Fifty Billion Dollars regarding the various piracy incidents in 2008 alone; they have the resources to contract private security/military contractors who could work onboard merchant shipping in International Waters.

From: Nelson, David D Sent: Monday, April 13, 2009 3:30 PM To: Mills, Cheryl D Subject: FW: E news Source of the rumor I mentioned this a.m. — FP Not sure if people have seen this item from Foreign Policy magazine:

Names: State, Mexico Fri, 04/10/2009 - 5:56pm Washington foreign policy hands in and out of the administration say that Maria Otero is likely to be nominated to be under secretary of state for democracy and global affairs, or "G". The Bolivian-born Otero is president and CEO of Accion International and a member of the board of the Clinton Global Initiative, and is an expert on sustainable microfinance with an interest in global women's issues, a key interest of Secretary Clinton. Former State Department counselor Wendy Sherman is being discussed for high level posts. Among them, the Asia expert, Albright Group principal, and close Hillary Clinton advisor is being discussed as a candidate for under secretary of state for economic affairs, now that Lael Brainard has gone to the Treasury Department, and as a possible nominee to be uS, ambassador to China. (Update: and USAID administrator.)

Former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Carlos Pascual has been reported likely to be nominated to be Obama's ambassador to Mexico. While some reports have suggested that Pascual, now vice president and director of foreign policy studies at the Brookings Institution, authored a paper describing Mexico as a failed state; think tank hands noted that Pascual was not the author of a report produced last year by Brookings on weak and failed states. (The study that seems to be in question, Index of State Weakness in the Developing World, rates Mexico in the top quintile of developing countries, the 120th weakest out of 141, e.g. among the strongest, and was Codirected by Susan Rice, now U.S. ambassador to the UN). Pascual alluded to the issue in a conversation with Brookings staff yesterday. Pascual was the first coordinator for reconstruction and stabilization at the State Department. (A call to his office was directed to the communications office, which declined to comment on his status.)

FW: Dead Aid

FFYI

From: Stremlau, Matthew H Sent: Monday, April 13, 2009 3:44 PM To: Mills, Cheryl D Cc: Slaughter, Anne-Marie; Toiv, Nora F Subject: Dead Aid

Cheryl, I know the book Dead Aid well. The ideas are not new. They are essentially the same ones that Bill Easterly has proposed in his two books: The Elusive Quest for Growth and White Man's Burden. The essential argument is that a top-down, "big-plan" approach to foreign assistance — the Jeff Sachs' approach - has not worked in the past and will not work in the future. Both Easterly and Moyo argue for a bottom-up approach that supports overall economic growth. They emphasize expanding access to capital markets and low-cost financing, promoting better governance and accountability, policy reform to enhance foreign investment, and support for market-driven social entrepreneurs. I will give Nora a couple of articles for you to take home and look at. One of them, by Paul Collier, offers a strong alternative to the USAID approach of funding small holder farmers. The other is by Dambisa Moyo and will give you an overall flavor of her perspective. Matt

See below. From: Paul Collier To: Sullivan, Jacob 3 Sent: Wed Apr 15 20:44:55 2009 Subject: Fwd: For the Secretary of State visit to Haiti

Jake this is for cheryl but I don't have her email. It is urgent - a suggestion to add ports to the secretary's agenda for her meeting with Preval tomorrow. Vital that he does not slide off fixing the port. More below. Paul Begin forwarded message: From: "Jean-Louis Warnholz" Date: 16 April 2009 01:31:16 BST To: "Paul Collier' Subject: For the Secretary of State visit to Haiti I enjoyed the opportunity to discuss the emerging potential that Haiti presents with the Secretary of State and former President Clinton last night. I would like to take this opportunity to make a brief suggestion for Thursday's trip to Haiti: We discussed the catalytic role the United States could play in leveraging much needed private investment in large scale job creation, for example through direct involvement of OPIC. In my report I pointed out that the port in Port-au-Prince is the most expensive port in the Caribbean and recommended the opening of new private ports. Ports remain a critical bottleneck to a job creation strategy both in garment manufacturing and agriculture. They also play a pivotal role in ensuring that some of the complementary imports necessary for the proposed road construction projects can enter the country both in the required quantities and in a cost-effective and timely manner. Elsewhere I have argued that spiraling prices in construction booms often mean that available funds only go half way to the finishing line. The Haitian authorities have already made inroads in addressing some of these inefficiencies and stand ready to do more. In fact, Prime Minister Pierre-Louis noted in the letter to investors which was presented at the meeting with Charles Rangel and garment entrepreneurs on Monday, that "ISPS certification of port facilities and alleviation of customs procedures" are in progress. The meetings tomorrow may present an opportunity to emphasize once again how central wellfunctioning, competitive ports are to attract foreign investors as part of the HOPEII window and to put the right transport infrastructure in place.

April 25, 2009 Clinton, in Iraq, Blames 'Rejectionists' for Violence By MARK LANDLER BAGHDAD — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton arrived here Saturday morning for a one-day visit, delivering an American show of support for Iraq as it battles a sudden eruption of violence, in the wake of suicide bombings that killed at least 140 people and wounded several hundred more on Thursday and Friday. Mrs. Clinton, in her first visit to Baghdad as secretary of state, acknowledged that the attacks were worrisome. She said she would seek a briefing on the security situation from the American military commander, Gen. Ray Odierno, in her first meeting on Saturday, a day packed with appointments. But she played down suggestions that the attacks augured a return to the relentless sectarian violence that convulsed Iraq in 2006. She said they did not signal that a new jihadist movement was taking root in Iraq, which could derail the progress the country has made in the last two years. "In Iraq, there will always be political conflicts," Mrs. Clinton said to reporters before setting off on the unannounced visit Friday evening. "But I really believe that Iraq, as a whole, is on the right track." She characterized the latest bout of violence as the last gasp of "rejectionists" who fear that the government will succeed in creating a united and peaceful Iraq. The suicide bombings, she said, are "in an unfortunately tragic way, a signal that the rejectionists fear that Iraq is going in the right direction." "Are there going to be bad days? Yes, there are," Mrs. Clinton said. But she added, "If you look at the evidence, overwhelmingly the progress that's been made has been positive." The Obama administration, she said, was determined to help Iraq achieve "stability, sovereignty, and self-reliance," as the United States prepares to pull out the last of its troops by the end of 2011. Mrs. Clinton has been a regular visitor here, coming three times as a senator to chart the progress of a war she voted to authorize, but later said had been mismanaged by the Bush administration. She said she was pleased to be back, though the attacks have cast a shadow over her visit. While the violence is far below the worst levels in 2006, 18 major attacks this month have kindled fears that Baathist and jihadist elements could be reconstituting themselves into a smaller, but still deadly, insurgency that will exploit the withdrawal of American troops between now and 2011. Mrs. Clinton compared these latest suicide bombings to a spectacular terrorist attack that occurred several months after the Good Friday peace accord ended years of conflict in Northern Ireland. At times, her analysis almost echoed that of former Vice President Dick Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. When the sectarian violence was relentless several years ago, Mr. Cheney spoke of the insurgency being in its "last throes," while Mr. Rumsfeld talked of "dead-enders" who kept fighting a lost cause. On Friday, Gen. David Petraeus, the head of the military's Central Command, testified before a House appropriations committee that the suicide bombers may have been part of a militant network based in Tunisia. Four of the bombers, he said, were from Tunisia. Mrs. Clinton said she did not have specific information on the bombers, but said: "We've seen suicide bombers from many countries in Iraq over the last six years. It's unfortunate that young men, and occasionally even a young woman, would travel to Iraq to kill other people in that way." 41 UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761349 Date: 06/30/2015

The violence did not seem to curtail Mrs. Clinton's ambitions for her brief visit. In addition to General Odierno, she was scheduled to meet a retinue of Iraqi leaders, including the president, Jalal Talabani; the prime minister, Nuni Kamal alMaliki; and the foreign minister, Hoshyar Zebari. She is also playing host at a roundtable of Iraqi women, something she has done in previous trips to Iraq. And she is to hold a town-hall meeting with Iraqi students, as well as members of nongovernmental organizations and provincial reconstruction teams. This is a format Mrs. Clinton savored as a presidential candidate, and that, as secretary of state, she has used from South Korea to Turkey. "I want to listen," she said, "I want to respond to their questions and concerns. I want some feedback and ideas of about how are we going to make this transition as successful as possible." When President Obama visited Baghdad earlier this month, dusty skies prevented him from traveling by helicopter from Baghdad International Airport into the city. He met with Mr. Maliki at a palace near the airport and General Odierno at the American base, Camp Victory. The new American ambassador, Christopher R. Hill, beat Mrs. Clinton to Baghdad by one day. He was confirmed by the Senate on Tuesday after a lengthy process that was held up by Republican senators, who objected to his lack of experience in the Arab world and his handling of negotiations with North Korea over its nuclear weapons program. In Iraq, Mr. Hill will spearhead the shift in emphasis by the United States from military to civilian operations. Some Iraq experts said the American civilian presence here had been lacking momentum since the departure in February of the last United States ambassador, Ryan C. Crocker.

Clinton says Iraq on right track BAGHDAD (AP) - U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says this week's deadly suicide bombings in Iraq are a sign that extremists fear the Iraqi government is succeeding. On her first visit to Iraq as America's top diplomat, Clinton said the country has made tremendous strides despite the recent violence and continues to deserve support as the Obama administration moves to reduce the U.S. military presence there. Clinton arrived in Baghdad Saturday on an unannounced trip after suicide bombings in the capital and outside killed at least 148 people on Thursday and Friday. The attacks have exposed gaps in security as Iraq takes over from U.S. forces in protecting the country.

Obama envoy: Time to act on climate change By ARTHUR MAX –2 hours ago BONN, Germany (AP) — Once booed at international climate talks, the United States won sustained applause Sunday when President Barack Obama's envoy pledged to "make up for lost time" in reaching a global agreement on climate change. Todd Stern also praised efforts by countries like China to reign in their carbon emissions, but said global warming "requires a global response" and that rapidly developing economies like China "must join together" with the industrial world to solve the problem. The debut of Obama's climate change team was widely anticipated after eight years of obdurate participation in U.N. climate talks by the previous Bush administration. "We are very glad to be back. We want to make up for lost time, and we are seized with the urgency of the task before us," Stern said to loud applause from the 2,600 delegates to the U.N. negotiations. They clapped again when Stern said the U.S. recognized "our unique responsibility ... as the largest historic emitter of greenhouse gases," which has created a problem threatening the entire world. The two-week meeting by 175 countries that began Sunday was the latest stage of talks aimed at forging a climate change agreement to replace the 1997 Kyoto Protocol on emissions targets for rich countries, which expires in 2012. 22 UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761448 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761448 Date: 06/30/2015

The United States was instrumental in negotiating Kyoto, but failed to win support at home. When George W. Bush took office, he renounced it, calling Kyoto a flawed agreement that would harm the U.S. economy and unfair because it demanded nothing from countries like China or India. Stern said his team did not want a repeat of the Kyoto debacle. The latest agreement is due to be finalized in December in Copenhagen, Denmark. "Ultimately, this is a political process," he said. "The way forward is steered by science and pragmatism." Stern said no one on his team doubted that climate change is real. "The science is clear, the threat is real, the facts on the ground are outstripping the worst-case scenarios. The cost of inaction or inadequate action are unacceptable," he said — a total change of tone from his predecessors. Scientists warned recently that climate change is happening more rapidly that previously calculated and said the Earth could be in danger of major climatic changes that would trigger widespread social disruption. U.N. scientists say rising sea levels caused by global warming threatens to swamp coastlines and entire island states, and predicted increasing drought for arid countries, especially in Africa. Obama has set aside $80 billion in his economic stimulus package for green energy, promised $150 billion for research over 10 years, and was tightening regulations on auto emissions, Stern said. "America itself cannot provide the solution, but there is no solution without America," he said. "It sent chills up my spine seeing the U.S. applauded," Keya Chatterjee of the Worldwide Fund for Nature said after Stern's speech. It was only 15 months ago at Bali, Indonesia, that U.S. negotiators were booed when they threatened to veto an accord laying down a two-year negotiating process to replace Kyoto. They backed off when the delegate from Papua New Guinea, Kevin Conrad, told them if "you are not willing to lead ... please get out of the way." Stern urged delegates Sunday to adopt a long-range vision for reducing climate change, rather than to focus on "a series of short-term, stopgap measures," and repeated Obama's determination to cut emissions by 80 percent by mid-century. His speech was meant to shift the debate from persistent demands by developing countries for industrial nations to reduce emissions by 25-40 percent below 1990 levels by 2020. Stern has said previously that goal was unattainable for the U.S. Speaking earlier to reporters, Stern defended the U.S. administration's goal of reducing U.S. carbon emissions by roughly 16 percent over the next dozen years from current levels. "We don't think (the target) is low at all," he said, adding it was "consistent with what other countries are willing to do." Others disagreed. "The target that the United States has put forward is not going to be sufficient," said Chatterjee. Jake Schmidt of the Nature Resources Defense Council said the Obama administration was talking behind the scenes about setting an annual emissions reduction target leading up to 2050. "It's hard to turn a big ship around, but it would show we are serious about our commitments to cut emissions from the medium to the long term," Schmidt said. 23 UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761448 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761448 Date: 06/30/2015

With time running out before the pact is due to be completed in December, delegates are trying to narrow vast differences over how best to fight climate change. Issues include how much countries need to reduce emissions, how to raise the tens of billions of dollars needed annually to fight global warming and how to transfer money and technology to poor countries who are most vulnerable to increasingly fierce storms, droughts and failing crops. Stern said the U.S. position will be guided by whatever deal Obama can strike with Congress. "I do not think that it is realistic to believe that we will then be able to go into an international setting and get a higher number than that," he said.

US to push for UN climate deal but no "magic wand" Sun Mar 29, 2009 11:04am EDT * Obama to push for new climate treaty * Climate envoy says no magic wand, sets limits to U.S. cuts (Adds details, quotes) By Alister Doyle, Environment Correspondent BONN, Germany, March 29 (Reuters) - U.S. President Barack Obama's administration promised to push for a new global treaty to fight global warming at United Nations climate talks on Sunday but cautioned it had no magic wand. "The United States is going to be powerfully and fully engaged," U.S. special envoy for climate change Todd Stern said at the opening of 175-nation U.N. talks in Bonn. "But we are all going to have to do this together, we don't have a magic wand," he told a news conference at the March 29-April 8 meeting in Bonn, the first since Obama took office. The U.S. delegation was greeted by applause at the opening. Stern said the United States wanted to work for a treaty that was economically "doable" and that countries could not expect Washington to "ride in on a white horse" to solve the problem. "We can't," he said. Some nations, racked by recession, have been waiting to hear Obama's policies before unveiling their own. The Bonn talks are due to consider issues including the levels of greenhouse gas cuts needed to slow global warming. Obama has promised to cut U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by about 16-17 percent from current levels to take them back to 1990 levels by 2020 as part of a new U.N. climate deal meant to be agreed in Copenhagen in December. Under former President George W. Bush, the United States was isolated among industrialised nations in opposing caps on emissions under the U.N.'s existing Kyoto Protocol. Delegates even booed U.S. delegates at a meeting in Indonesia, in 2007. 24

"Everyone is very excited" by signs of a stronger U.S. commitment, Yvo de Boer, head of the U.N. Climate Change Secretariat, told a news conference. China and the United States are the top greenhouse gas emitters. NO WHITE HORSE Stern said, however, that the United States could not make the deepest cuts in greenhouse gases advised by the U.N. Climate Panel for 2020 to avoid the worst of global warming, of between 25 and 40 percent below 1990 levels. "We should be guided by a combination of science and Pragmatism," Stern said. Many developing nations, led by China, want rich nations to make deep cuts. Almost no developed nations have laid out goals within the 25-40 percent range. Among the most ambitious, the European Union plans cuts of 20 percent below 1990 levels by 2020. The U.N. Climate Panel projects more floods, droughts, more powerful storms, heatwaves and rising sea levels from a gradual build-up of heat-trapping gases from burning fossil fuels. De Boer has in the past called Obama's goals an "opening offer" that he hopes will be toughened in Copenhagen. Stern said that it was unclear whether Congress will manage to pass climate legislation before the Copenhagen meeting in December. If a law is passed by then, he said, it would be unrealistic for Washington to sign up to any tougher cuts. On Saturday, an estimated one billion people turned out the lights for an Earth Hour to show concern about global warming. The action also dimmed landmarks from the Eiffel Tower to the Sydney Harbour Bridge. "Earth hour was probably the largest public demonstration on climate change ever," de Boer said. -- For Reuters latest environment blogs click on: blogs.reuters.com/environment/ (Editing by Louise Ireland)

Consulting for State 1N 30 March 09.doc

Secretary Clinton, Pending our conversation, I thought I owed Anne-Marie a thank you and follow up message because we had a terrific chat on Thursday, bringing to bear the best extra-governmental academic expertise so I just sent a proposal memo (attached and pasted in through the Long Term Strategy Group below). Thank you again for recommending me and for all of your advice. I am most eager to help however I can and look forward to hearing your thoughts. All best. Jackie Memorandum Department of State To: From: Long Term Strategy Group Re:

Issue: The Long Term Strategy Group would undertake by means of a consulting agreement to explore major shifts in American strategy for interacting with the major powers of Asia. This would involve simulations of alternative interactions among Asian powers, and the impact of alternative American strategies on the outcome of those interactions. Because these explorations involve speculative contingencies, they are most appropriately conducted through non-governmental institutions, though they can ultimately be used to inform debate within the American government. Background: The strategic landscape of Asia has changed substantially over the last few decades, and may yet shift suddenly in ways that are currently under-explored. The growth of Chinese power is altering the Asian balance of power; the government of India is exploring new defense alignments; and Japanese officials are openly discussing subjects that were previously off limits, up to and including a nuclear weapons option for Japan. The current economic crisis will very likely lead to higher levels of political instability within major Asian countries, including China, which may, in turn lead to discontinuities in their external policies, creating a need to explore a range of possible new political configurations within the region, and possible new modes of American interaction with traditional allies, new friends, and potential rivals. The explicit examination of these new configurations and modes of interaction calls for combinations of activities (e.g., conduct of simulations of long-range regional interactions, some of which entail non-incremental shifts in American foreign policy) and consideration of scenarios that are inevitably politically sensitive and are most appropriately conducted outside , the American government. The role of non-government groups working with the American government to explore speculative contingencies is well established.

worked on plans to restructure agencies and departments within the American government that are not as well positioned to conduct that sort of planning themselves. The Long Term Strategy Group has specialized in the analysis of modes of strategic decision-making and behavior that differ from those anticipated by the United States. It has focused on China, Iran, India, Pakistan, and Japan, and has presented its work to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, National Intelligence Council, NSC staff members, and the Office of the Secretary of Defense. LTSG has participated in and organized multiple simulations for the American government to explore the nature and outcome of complex interactions among states that do not behave in ways commonly anticipated by the United States. As a private, for-profit organization, it can conduct work that remains the exclusive, not-for-publication property of the contracting party (i.e., the government). The initial issues to be explored by LTSG would include: --The impact of a potential severe and prolonged economic contraction on the foreign policies of China, Japan, and Russia; the resulting shifts in alliances and relationships of conflict within the region; and the alternative strategies for interacting with Asia that might be considered by the United States. --The impact of a potential end of effective central government in Pakistan that leaves a Punjab state co-existing with a Baluch/Sindh state and an Afghanistan that expands to control the border regions now part of Pakistan. --The impact of the acquisition of nuclear weapons by Iran on intra-Asian relations. In each case, the deliverables would constitute one monograph, the conduct of one simulation exercise involving non-government participants (and government observers/participants if desired), and one workshop report. Action: To approve the general plan of work set forth above, and to initiate administrative measures to complete the work within 15 months of initial approval.

RELEASE IN FULL

Mr/s Chairman, Members of the Commission, Thank you for the invitation to speak today on this timely subject. My testimony will address how Chinese foreign-directed information operations figure into the People's Republic of China's (PRC's) broader strategy as it rises, and my remarks will be structured around what the Chinese themselves are saying and writing about foreign-directed information operations in their internal reports. After reviewing a representative sample of the Chinese reports, I'll move to the logic behind their approach, or where it comes from, and finally, what China's aims are, before offering a preliminary assessment of their success. To give you a preview, my answer is, clearly, yes, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leadership is trying to influence or shape American perceptions of, and policies toward, China. Mainly, up to now, these efforts have been in the direction of reassurance, to allay US concerns about China's economic rise, military build-up, and increasing political and diplomatic influence. Let me begin by referring to a Chinese report addressing the need for, and character of, foreign-directed strategic information capabilities. This article, a kind of roadmap for foreign-directed information campaigns, appeared in a February 2009 Reference News (Cankao Xiaoxi) outlet, and it was translated by the American Open Source Center, along with the other articles that I am going to cite today. Reference News publications come out of a special branch of the official Chinese news agency Xinhua that is charged with preparing information and analysis for senior cadres. In theory, the circulation of these Reference News reports is limited to high-ranking Party members. To be sure, I am not about to quote a policy document but rather an analytical piece. It seems to be representative of a certain cast of mind, however, as we will see. The article from February refers to "national public relations weapons," which it defines: "By national public relations, we mean dialogues between nations or between a country and relevant stake holders against the backdrop of competition over power and interest." The need to "set the agenda for foreign media" is explicitly stressed. Under a subhead of the article called "Media Diplomacy: Breaking the Siege of Public Opinion in the West," the author writes: It is obvious that the West still has the upper hand while the East remains weak... Whenever there is an agenda dispute, international public opinion will form a force that involves the West's besieging the East. And the article proceeds to explain: Influencing and setting the foreign media agenda fully embodies a rule of the game in modern society — that is, whoever can influence the media agenda can influence the public agenda... The foreign media are not a taxi on the road that can be flagged when one needs it and shoved away when one does not need it. In other words, the foreign press has to be cultivated, so that when a crisis strikes, certain outlets can be counted upon to report favorably on China.

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015

How can this be achieved? "Foreign media outlets should be given special treatment so that they will not be forced to unite and form a confrontational alliance." In other words, divide them, or keep them divided. The article elaborates on this question, emphasizing the need to "provide them with specialized information..." That is, grant privileges to encourage positive coverage. Under the same heading of "Breaking the Siege of Public Opinion in the West," the article also offers general precepts such as, When a negative event occurs, [the authorities] should not order the media to shut up. Public opinion is like a big container. The more information you inject.., the less space there is for other people's views and ability to return fire. In other words, flood the zone. More specifically, under the heading of "Lobbying," the author writes: We need to influence the influential. In every country, there are famous commentators and writers, and they are the media and public focus. With the support of these foreign 'eloquent speakers' and writers, the national public relations drive can yield twice the results with half the effort. In addition, it is necessary to fully mobilize overseas elites and [overseas] Chinese who are 'familiar with China.' ... [Because they] understand the cultural environment abroad, they can be good assistants in China's public relations. Where does all this come from? Whence this talk of a "siege of public opinion," "national public relations weapons," and the like? It flows from a tradition that stresses the role of information in political and geopolitical interactions — that is, in both domestic and foreign strategy. I'd go so far as to say that the Chinese tradition puts managing perceptions at the heart of strategy. This is evident from Sun Zi's injunction to know the enemy and oneself to the CCP's extensive domestic propaganda and information management efforts, which have been explored by scholars such as Anne-Marie Brady, David Shambaugh, Daniel Lynch and Ashley Esarey, among others. Perhaps most relevant for our purposes, the emphasis on information in China's strategic culture is evident in Deng Xiaoping's famous injunction that China should "bide its time and hide its capabilities," which can only be understood as a call to shape the data that reaches foreigners, in this case to conceal certain data. In this connection, consider the formulation designed to influence how foreigners understand China's increased power on the world stage, "peaceful rise." The line, promulgated by Zheng Bijian in 2002, was later changed to "peaceful development," lest the word "rise" provoke anxiety and undermine the intended effect of reassuring foreigners about China's trajectory. But before this change took hold, Zheng slipped up in a September 2004 Shanghai TV appearance, as quoted in a recent China Quarterly article by Daniel Lynch: "Working in this way [touting the "peaceful rise"] has its

advantages — in obtaining greater understanding, sympathy and support, in winning discourse power on the question of China's development path, in winning discourse power in the international sphere... It is all extremely advantageous, and there is absolutely no downside." This is a pretty stunning shift from insisting that "peaceful rise" is an earnest description of China's present and future to describing the label as instrumental, a tool for "winning discourse power." Now Zheng is affiliated with the Central Party School of the Chinese Communist Party, but he has been a senior member of the Party's propaganda apparatus, an extensive network of offices that exists behind the official bureaucracy, since the 1960s. Zheng is never identified this way in Chinese Western-language news outlets. Further, the Party School is often referred to as a Chinese think tank. Is this an institution just like our Brookings or AEI? No. In another recent article called "It Is Difficult for Chinese Think Tanks to Learn from the American Model," the author explicitly notes the differences: "US private think tanks are in ... a thriving state. This is unique in the entire world, ... a byproduct of ... the US dual-party election system... fundamentally different from the domestic conditions of China." Therefore, "one is afraid that what China think tanks can learn from US think tanks is more about micro-level management and operational models." In other words, because most Chinese think tanks are sponsored by the Party, while American think tanks are private, all Chinese think tanks can learn from their US counterparts is internal organizational details. A different recent piece, "China Must Have Strong Nongovernmental Diplomatic Power," published in a Chinese People's Daily [Renmin Ribao] outlet that tracks foreign opinion on China for senior cadres, reviews the fundamental differences between the United States and China in the think tank realm, and assesses that China is at a disadvantage: The diversified nongovernmental forces have provided US diplomacy with multiple abilities to set up various agendas. In the meantime, China can do nothing but rely on its government's single-track diplomacy. This has placed China in a passive position, in which it is hard to cope with the situation, as if it is shooting mosquitoes with a cannon. The article goes on to say that to avoid embarrassments like the crackdown on free Tibet protestors in the run-up to the Olympics, China must unleash overseas Chinese to counter Western public expressions of sympathy for Tibet. What is this talk of "discourse power in the international sphere" and "shooting mosquitoes" about? Well, with regard to the United States and the lines about "biding time, and hiding capabilities" and "peaceful rise," we can be sure that there is an effort to keep America friendly and complacent. But there is also increasing realism in the Chinese reports about the continuing feasibility of this approach as China passes through different stages of modernization and development and starts to assume roles associated with great powers.

From the "national public relations" document that I quoted at the outset, here is a description of a natural evolution for China's foreign-directed information campaigns: China's public relations drive is not a.. .competition that involves waging a quick battle, but what Chairman Mao.. .described as a 'long-running battle.' According to Chairman Mao, a long-running battle involved three stages: defense, confrontation, and counterattack. From the strategic level of national public relations, the defense stage comprises passive defense and active defense. We divide the confrontation period into two parts: confrontation resulting from both sides being well matched in strength, and [then] dialogue brought about by a balance of power. The counterattack stage involves attacking and conquering. Within the PRC today, there seems to be significant discussion of whether China can continue to bide its time or whether China will be compelled to shift its foreign-directed information efforts. The roadmap article concludes, "While we should not demonstrate toughness characteristic of the confrontation stage and the counterattack stage, we cannot continue making the kind of unprincipled compromises or maintaining the unrestrained modesty that marks the passive defense stage." In addition to shifting the message directed at the United States, China may accelerate its wooing of other countries. Perhaps inspired by the idea of "soft power," the Chinese seem to believe that a competition exists in the realm of "international public opinion." A January 2008 analysis by the scholar Yan Xuetong, published in a journal of the Chinese Institute of Contemporary International Relations (CICIR), a "think tank" with ties to the Ministry of State Security, which oversees Chinese counterintelligence, argues that "if a country has relatively many strategically friendly countries, it is likely to win support from other countries." According to Yan, the United States has an advantage in allies, or "international mobilization ability," but this can be eroded in three to five years if China properly "positions" itself or manipulates impressions of China's "identity": We may think of repositioning China's international identity and expanding the homogeneity between China and other countries in identity. Economically, China may position itself as a burgeoning modern country, being between a developed and underdeveloped country. Politically, China may position itself as a democratizing country, ... between a democratic country and ... [an autocracy]. Culturally, China may position itself as a Confucian country, between a religious and a nonreligious country... I have been talking about Chinese intentions up to now. To conclude, I would like to turn to an assessment of effects. But effects are difficult to measure, in part because any judgment requires addressing the counterfactual question, Would we have acted as we have in the absence of Chinese foreign-directed information campaigns? As a preliminary answer, let me adduce the article "Have China Scholars All Been Bought," by the Hong Kong-based professor Carsten Holz. Holz begins, "Academics who study China, which includes the author, habitually please the Chinese Communist Party,

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015

sometimes consciously, and often unconsciously." Consider, too, the words of one of the most senior American scholars of China, Orville Schell: I try to say, 'Okay, here is what I think, what I understand, what I think I see, have learned and read.' Then, I try and think through what the Chinese government's reaction will be... And then I try to be as truthful as I can in a way that is respectful and unprovocative but that is not pandering. China has a tremendously highly evolved capacity to create panderers both among its own people and foreigners who become involved with them. Where is all of this going if China succeeds in reassuring the United States while increasing its "international mobilization ability"? That's a subject for a different hearing, I think. Thank you again, and I look forward to your questions.

I also mentioned that we were not aware of recent cases where previously detained Amcits in the DPRK were "indicted" and "brought to trial." I said I wouldn't read too much into terms such as "illegal entry" and "suspected hostile acts"; I was still convinced that the track we've been pursuing, i.e. gaining consular access through the Swedish Amb. in Pyongyang, and contact via other diplomatic channels, offered hope for a resolution. Mr. Gore said he very much appreciated the call. He asked that we convey as much of this information as we could to the family members. I told him we would do so through CA.

Food Aid Flexibility, Overseas Investment Up for Panel Consideration By Adam Graham-Silverman, CQ Staff . The Senate Foreign Relations Committee plans to approve a bill Tuesday aimed at spurring a "green revolution" to combat global food insecurity, in part by loosening restrictions on using U.S. aid to buy food overseas. The legislation (S 384) would authorize $500 million for a new emergency food assistance fund that could be used to buy food in the affected region instead of buying it in the United States and shipping it overseas. Critics say that system costs too much, takes too long to provide aid and depresses local prices when U.S. products arrive. The bill, by panel ranking Republican Richard G. Lugar of Indiana, also would create a global food "czar" position at the White House and authorize $7.75 billion for agriculture research and exchange programs through fiscal 2014. "We can bring America's dedication to science, innovation, technology and education together to lead an effort devoted to overcoming the obstacles to food security," Lugar said upon introducing the bill last month. To keep up with rising population and an expanding middle class in countries such as China and India, farmers will have to double their food output by 2050, Lugar said. At the same time, he said, the share of U.S. development spending devoted to agriculture dropped from 25 percent in 1980 to 1 percent in 2003. Anti-hunger activists support Lugar's effort to allow local purchase of food, but past efforts have run into farmstate interests that support requirements to buy U.S. crops. The bill would give the president discretion to use the fund to meet "unexpected urgent food assistance needs."

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761526 Date: 06/30/2015

The panel also will mark up a bill (S 705) to reauthorize the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) through fiscal 2013. The program, which turns a profit, directs private capital to developing countries by offering U.S. businesses and lenders political risk insurance and investment financing. OPIC's temporary reauthorization expires at the end of fiscal 2009. The House passed a long-term reauthorization in the 110th Congress, but it stalled in the Senate when Tom Coburn, R-Okla., objected to language to encourage projects to address greenhouse gas emissions. That language was not included in this bill, in part because OPIC already examines its projects' greenhouse gas impact and also because of expectations that the Obama administration's plans for climate change legislation would impose a similar requirement. Coburn also argued that the program failed to target the world's poorest countries, lacked accountability and gave too much in loans to large corporations. The reauthorization would bar OPIC assistance to companies that have loans to, or sizable investments in, the energy sector of any state that sponsors terrorism. It would aim to reward countries with oil, gas or gems that have adopted transparent accounting systems. The markup is scheduled for 2:15 p.m. Tuesday in S-116 Capitol.

Jackie Newmyer Monday, April 27, 2009 6:51 PM Re: Thanks

Secretary Clinton, Thank you! Will update you when I hear from her, and if there is anything else I should do, let me know. All best, Jackie ps Saw that Foreign Minister Yeo was on your schedule today. Fyi, he is one of my favorite Singaporeans because of this 2007 speech on China, which he posted to his blog (!): April 12, 2007 Foreign Minister George Yeo's speech at a dinner organised by the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy on 5 February 2007, which he gave off-the-cuff. Thank you Kishore for your kind words. Dear friends, ladies and gentlemen. I was in India two weeks ago, had a good trip, spent nine days there. While in Calcutta after calling on the Chief Minister, I had a bit of time to look around so I attended a mass at Mother Theresa's house. Very interesting gathering; there was a Singapore nun there, she had been there for over ten years; Sister Maria Tony. I wondered why someone from Singapore would want to dedicate her life to picking up the dead and the dying in the back alleys of Calcutta and living that life. There were many nuns there who were in their ninth year. They take their first vow in the fifth year, renewable every year. In the tenth year they have to decide - final vows for eternity. So if you are not sure, please, there's a way out; if you are sure, then you're in the room. So the priest gave a very tough sermon and while he was talking, I could hear the din of traffic noise outside, in the streets of Calcutta. Then suddenly, I heard the call of the muezzin. Now this is a Hindu city. I told myself, I thought wow, what diversity in this country, India, and its ability to internalise this diversity and to find it unremarkable that the tiny woman from Albania should come into their midst, become one of them and then when she was beatified, was celebrated as an Indian, on the way to canonization. China and India in that comparison- China is not India. China has a very different sense of itself; its deep internal construction is very different. Superficially there are similarities, as there is between China and the US and China and Europe. But if you look into it's deep construction, it is very different. When we talk about China's future and China in the 21st century, how China will behave in a world community, China's attitudes towards democracy, towards law, towards social justice. It is important first to look into this deep construction because that is their nature. Naturally we should not be deterministic, there is nothing inevitable in human history, but when we understand its nature, it becomes easier to anticipate its moves and you'll be less suprised by its actions. A few years ago, the Chinese government embarked on a major project which is its dynastic duty- to write the history of the Qing dynasty, the Manchus, from 1368 to 1644. Ever since the Han dynasty, roughly contemporaneous with the Roman Empire, they developed a historiographic tradition of each dynasty writing the history of the previous period. So Sima Qian of the Later Han wrote of the earlier Han and the entire period before that; then later on they wrote about the Later Han, Jin wrote up the Three Kingdoms; Ming wrote up the Yuan: The Yuan, which was Mongol in its origins wrote up the Sung. Sung wrote up the Tang dynasty which was the Classical Period. The last dynasty, the Qing, collapsed in the Republican Revolution of 1911; this is now 2007. I think in 2003, they embarked on this project, 'The Official History of the Qing dynasty'. When the former Vice Premier Li Lanqing was in Singapore recently, I asked him about it. He said "we told the scholars not to rush this project". I asked him how long it would take to write this history. He said it would take many years, easily 10 years. I said, "have you collected the material?" He said yes. I asked, "external sources?" He UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015

said yes, external sources too. All the countries, the Vatican, European countries, the whole lot; all assembled 24 official histories, this would be the 26th. And Li's instruction to them was not to be too quick to draw conclusions! Now Mao Tze Tung was a revolutionary, he was a great revolutionary. He overturned everything before but he knew his history, he read the 24 histories, and not only did he read them, he annotated them. But he wrote with a terrible, illegible scrawl, so scholars had to decipher those scrawls. Then they wrote commentaries on his commentaries and now it's all published. It is very difficult for the Chinese to depart from their own history because it's the same great plains, the same mountains more or less, the same neighbours more or less and they have seen the same patterns recur. So a long time ago during the Ming dynasty they wrote up the romantic period of the Three Kingdoms. The first line said: "Below heaven, great movements, great currents, long disunity leads to unity and long unity leads to disunity." So they accept as a part of their own deep nature that there are cycles in their civilisation; that they have ups and downs. In recent years, when you visit them, you could sense them feeling their own re-emergence, it's a bit scary. In the initial years, they were lacking in confidence, they asked many questions, but now they know that there is an organic vitality. It is like an adolescent who watches his own development, and conscious of it. I say scary because for those of us who live on the periphery of that empire, what happens there will radiate its influence on us and eventually, to a greater or lesser degree envelope us. How do we see China? I think to begin with, it's important not to try and, from an intellectual viewpoint, transpose our own experiences on to China, because I believe it will develop according to its own logic, according to its own DNA. It is growing now, it will continue to grow, it will develop its own contradictions and one day those contradictions, many years from now, will lead to its own decline. So they say at the beginning of a dynasty the taxes are light but the treasury is full, and at the end of a dynasty, the taxes are crushing but the treasury is empty. The important thing to realise about China is that some things are deeply resistant to change. Take Confucius. Every time they had to overturn a dynasty, they had to overturn Confucius, because Confucius justified the status quo. So throughout the 19th century, whether it was the Taiping Revolution, the Communist movement or Sun Yat Sen; they spent their lives debunking Confucius. It reached its final moment when they criticised Zhou Enlai together with Confucius- no- Lin Biao together with Confucius. That was the last paroxysm. Today, Hu Jingtao said [in Mandarin He Xie She Hui ], "harmonious society". Suddenly you hear the resonance of Confucius coming back. And everywhere in the world on the pattern of Alliance Francaise, the Goethe Institute, the USIA, they establish Confucius Institutes and the learning of the Confucianist classics are coming back with remarkable force in China, not yet in the state curriculum but just parents wanting to teach their children the Confucianist ditties. Now why is this important? From Mao to Deng to Jiang Zemin, at every stage, they re-interpreted Marx. They are comfortable with the young Marx, the idea of the superstructure on the economic base, the idea that politics is concentrated economics- that they like. But the class struggle, they downplay. They talk about the Three Represents, the progressive forces, the progressive elements, they nurture those. Now Hu Jingtao says "harmonious society", "peaceful re-emergence". This mindset has a certain attitude towards law, has a certain attitude towards religion, towards democracy and towards foreign policy and I would like, to deal with each in turn. Joseph Needham many years ago, I think in the 60's, the man who wrote The Science and Civilisation of China, that great encyclopedic work; he said its not that the Chinese have no legal tradition. In fact, by his estimation, the Chinese had a greater corpus of legal codification than the West. A greater corpus of legal codification than the West! Surprise, surprise. But the idea that the Emperor is below the law, that is completely alien to their thinking. Where did that idea come from? Well in the West, you may trace it back to Hammurabi, you may trace it back to Moses, to Greece, to Rome. But if you trace the evolution of that DNA, it goes back, way back, into its early beginnings. The Chinese had a very different evolutionary starting point. It was not in law, it was in an idea they call '1i' which is proper conduct among human beings. They believe, deep in their instincts, that law is only a means towards justice, and that when the outcome of law is perverse, then that law must be overridden, because justice, proper conduct, the proper relationship among human beings must take precedence. And to suddenly say that all that had happened in the previous dynasties, all that the earlier histories have summarised, are all wrong and that they should instead adopt something with its origins in Western Europe, which had as its crowning moment the crowning of Charlemagne by the Pope in the year 800; UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015

to them, what are you talking about? For the Chinese, laws are more like regulations, means towards a larger end. Their attitude towards democracy follows a parallel pattern. Democracy is not an end in itself, democracy is a means and they are quite happy to consider democracy as a useful means towards government and that at appropriate places and appropriate levels, democracy is good. So at the village and the township level they have democracy, it is a universal franchise. They approve a slate of candidates, and they have fierce elections, fierce campaigning, and those who are incompetent or arrogant or despotic, they get chucked out. But once you reach the level of the cities and the provinces, they say no. No direct democracy. Why not? Because they do not believe, with their view of the universe, that that is the way to produce good government. Any more than the Catholic Church believes that the way to elect the Pope is through universal franchise. That the parishioners should decide who should be the parish priest. The Parish Council, maybe, that's ok. But the parish priest? Bishops? Universal franchise? That's against God's laws. They have that kind of instinct embedded in them, it is not Communist, it is just Chinese. And they know that too much democracy, invariably leads to 'localitis'; of favouritism towards friends, relatives, people who are from the same villages whom we have a relationship with. We have the same problem in Singapore, in fact this problem exists throughout East Asia. Till today, apart from Singapore, among Chinese communities and among many East Asian communities, the idea that ultimate control of the business should go outside the family is unpersuasive. You talk to Li Ka-shing, you talk to Robert Kwok, you talk to Lim Soe Liong, you talk to any of them; they will go back to the family. Why? Because they believe that in the end, what matters at the deepest level, is trust. And the family guarantees you that trust. This is also the Indian wisdom. So you have the Marwaris controlling the economy of Calcutta, you have the Parsees, you have Sindhis, of which Kishore is a member, you have the Chettiars. They operate on the basis of deep trust and at a completely different level from that of contract law. And because they distrust local affiliations, in two dynasties, Ming and Qing, no senior official could serve within 400 miles of where he was born. No local official to serve within 400 miles, so in other words, in Singapore, no Singaporean can govern Singapore. They go beyond that, today there's almost no province in China where the provincial leader is from that province. Now you consider this, you transpose this onto Europe, it's as if routinely, the President of France is not French. And if you are a German, you are disqualified as a Chancellor of the Republic. And an Italian cannot be trusted to serve in Rome. Ancient wisdom! What is remarkable is this is accepted as legitimate. If you are Cantonese and you have a Northener squatting over you, you do not consider it perverse or an abomination. This is part of life and in fact, you are more likely to have impartial governor than if a local boy were to be there, because he is more likely to favour those who are related to him or those who are his friends. So when you talk democracy to the Chinese, it is against this cultural backdrop. So what applied to the Qing dynasty, the Ming dynasty, they have taken a step further recently in China. They introduced even more rules, governing the circumstances under which you are disqualified from serving in the area near where you were born. You can't stay in a ministry for too long, you can't stay in a department for too long beacuse if you stay too long, you develop affiliations and those affiliations will result in sidedoors and guanxi and corruption. Of course, many of these rules will still be breached, and there will be scandals from time to time and they will act on those scandals. For as long as the central leadership is pristine, the system can be maintained. But one day they will become corrupt, as in so many previous dynasties, and a downward spiral begins. And it is very difficult in that situation to reverse it. So I mentioned at the table that for India, it's not a country that can sustain a revolution, because its deep structure would not allow for it. I think China is a country which can only be renewed through periodic revolutions. Kishore asked me when- I said well maybe in 200 years time because these are long cycles and they expect as a matter of course that the history of the People's Republic would not be written by the People's Republic. It will be written by the next dynasty. Except that right now they say we shouldn't call it a dynasty, we are now democrats, we are a republic, there is no Emperor...Well, whatever term you call it, it will be done much later. Let me now talk about their attitude towards religion. Being a Roman Catholic I follow quite closely the ups and downs in their relationship with the Vatican and I find it quite fascinating. The Jesuits, when they went to China in the Ming dynasty, hoped that they could convert the Emperor, and all of China would become Catholic and a great mission would have been achieved. They never succeeded. Some of the brightest minds from UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015

Europe went there. Matteo Ricci, he corrected the Chinese calendar, he repaired the clocks in the palace, he saw the throne, but he never got to meet the Emperor and he died in China. And his tomb, it's in the compound of the Beijing Party School today. And the church which he founded is still there today. 'Li Matou', that's what he called himself, he applied for permission to be buried in China and he was given that permission. Then when the Manchus swept southwards, in 1644, the missionaries thought now they had a chance, "the Manchus will be a bit more accomodating towards us, we will yet Christianise China". So if you read the despatches of the missionaries during that period, the Tartar Wars they described it, they were full of hope. But not a chance. They appealed to the Second Emperor, Kangxi. "Can we send more missionaries?" "No problem". "Can we have them all report to a papal legate in Beijing" "No such thing". The Emperor imposed one condition: "you can send as many priests as you want to China but they must die in China, they cannot leave after that". You see, instinctively, the Chinese, when they see the Catholic Church, they see someone like themselves, someone whose claim to its members is total. And for whom that loyalty is a jealous one. Mind you they do not try to control everything; they just control the big things, dogma, doctrine. After that you are left on your own and you are financially independent, but on the big issue of who appoints ministers and provincial secretaries, it's the same as the Pope appointing Bishops and Bishops ordaining Priests and governing this vast empire, whether we're talking about the Chinese empire or the Catholic empire. They have about the same number of members in the world which is why their interaction is a complex and difficult one. And over the appointment of Bishops, both seek ultimate authority. In the end they have got to find a way to resolve it. I can anticipate the Vatican's argument that "we are not of this realm, we are of the other realm, so please we are not in conflict". As for the Chinese leaders, their attitude towards religion from the earliest days is to keep religion at arm's length. Those who govern the empire, they are areligious, they can have private religions, but in matters of their public conduct, they are Confucianist. In public, you are not a Catholic, you are not a Muslim, you are not a Buddhist. When the Jesuits went to China, they were very impressed by this - that it was possible to create a moral order based not on religion but on ethics. So impressed, that they wrote about it, and influenced people like Voltaire and the other Encyclopedists. It helped inspire the Frence revolution- that you could get rid of the Church, and still maintain a moral order in society. I've talked about China and law, China and democracy, China and religion, now let me talk about China and foreign policy which is perhaps your greatest interest; about which I can only talk about generally because you are the experts in this field. I think it's very difficult for the Chinese to break from their old mindset that they are [Zhong Guo], the Middle Kingdom, they are at the center of the Universe, then there are the other 'chopsticks peoples' who are semi-Sinic. I think they consider Singapore to be semi-Sinic. Then there are those who are beyond that realm, who are what the Greeks would have called Barbarians. The Mongols, the Manchus, the Europeans, the Americans, the Indians and so on. Now all that jargon of course is not in use today. They are very civilised, they will welcome you with great hospitality - lavish dinners, very courteous words, offering you the best of everything in the house. It reminded me of the way my mother used to teach us at home, we were a big family and the stranger has got to be treated well, the visitor has to be treated well, because you are afraid of the visitor. So you always treat visitors better than your own family members because the visitor is capricious, he can harm you so make sure you fit him in. Those who are within your authority, you can always maintain order anyway. This is the way, in their minds, the universe is ordered. So I can understand why the Koreans, the Japanese, the Vietnamese, to some extent, the Singaporeans, they feel uncomfortable about what they see as a repetition of a pattern they have seen many times before in the past. Will the Chinese change this principle of foreign policy, I think they have, because, never in their history have they met, have they existed in close contact with competing centers of power, with the US, with Europe, India, and you are no longer separated by oceans which cannot be crossed, mountains which cannot be crossed, now they are connected. So they are making adjustments. It will be interesting to watch how they handle their Olympics; if the Olympics become an exercise of pure Chinese nationalism, I think the international reaction against China will be very severe. But I think the Chinese will be sophisticated. I expect they will organise cheer teams for the Americans, for the Japanese, so that there is an appearance of courtesy and common humanity. They are very careful to ensure that their words fit conditions today. But let me say in their defence that many of these methods they use arise out of fear, not out of a desire to UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015

dominate. If you analyse the old tributary system, those who sent tributes got more than they gave in return. It became a racket. So the Japanese merchants competed to get tokens from [Ryukyu] in order to be able to do the China trade because it meant a lot of money. The Chinese are fearful of foreigners. They are fearful of the Russians to the north, the Muslims to the West, the Indians across the Himalayas, but mostly the Americans across the Pacific. Their strategy is to keep the temperature low, low profile, hide the shine of your armour, the shine of your sword, just play the game and concentrate on economic development. Internally will they make preparations? I have no doubt, because they have a deep fear. Is their intention to dominate, to conquer, the way the European powers did in the past? I don't think so. I don't think there is a great desire to turn non-Chinese into Chinese. Maybe Korea, maybe Vietnam, maybe Mongolia, who at various points in time were part of their greater empire, they might consider worth civilising. But beyond that, Sinicising Indians, Russians? No, I don't think they will want to do that. So as they now become stronger and more powerful, I believe that while their old nature will re-assert itself, they will also be reacting to us. If they find the world a threatening place, they will develop their own responses to those threats. Quite early in the day, they wanted to neutralise Southeast Asia, Asean. It had never been an area which threatened them, historically. So they didn't worry about Southeast Asia as a threat. But resources, sea lanes, they go through Southeast Asia. And they made a dramatic move a few years ago. Zhu Rongji was here for the ASEAN-China summit. He said, "free trade agreement". At that time when he announced it, the leaders of ASEAN almost fell off their chairs. We thought of China an economic threat to us. Not as a partner. Took us almost a year to digest the implications and to say yes, let's negotiate. Step by step. And all the time China was assuring us that we would benefit more than they would benefit. When the Framework Agreement was signed by Zhu Rongji in 2002 in Phonm Penh, he made two remarkable statements. He said if after 10 years, the agreement benefits China more than it benefits Southeast Asia, let us renegotiate it. I can never imagine the American USTR, or the European Trade Commissioner, talking like that. I mean in a contract, a deal is a deal, it's settled for eternity. Then he said: "China does not seek for itself an exclusive position in Southeast Asia", so he acknowledged that we were not just going to date one girl, we intended to be promiscuous from the beginning. Towards Northeast Asia, I think it is very complicated, because there is so much history and legacy. Towards Central Asia, towards Russia, they have deep fears. Towards America, it has become a relationship bound together at so many points, a rupture would become more and more unthinkable. But it is going to be a very difficult relationship, it will be the most important and most difficult relationship to manage in this century. If it's badly managed there will be war, if it's properly managed there will be another generation of peace and hundreds of millions of people in the world would be raised out of the depths of poverty. In this area, you are the experts, but whenever I see China and watch its moves, I go back to its deep nature because it's not easy for a country so vast, with such a sense of itself, to depart too much from its deep nature.

i like virtually everything in the two-pager, and I do agree with Tom on the notion of elevating the "national interest" and security elements of this, both because those have become part of her "brand," and also to help flesh it out in a way that both gives it the widest reach, and also protects it from attack. some ways to consider doing that might be to just ensure that the overarching description of it "call out" the national interest/security reasoning at work - something like "America has the opportunity and the responsibility to lead in the creation of a network of principled partnerships that will serve our national interest, enhance our security and build the capacity of people and nations to solve global problems and give everyone more power to reach their potential." (i inserted "network" of principled partnerships because i think it kind of alludes to both the diversity of the kinds of partnerships as well as to the influence of technology on building them...not a "must have" but just a thought... .in the same vein, i don't know whether there might be an advantage in alluding to a network of "pragmatic and principled partnerships" or "practical and principled partnerships" just to ensure it's got that pragmatism aspect of it sharply inserted).

Those pieces are in here, but the notion should be clear that we are not ceding leadership, we are leading by building alliances and partnerships. And we will always stand for what is right and the right to defend ourselves and our allies, but we are fighting as we always have for shared values. Make sense? Tom

To a person, the heads of delegation were hugely complimentary. Good, very candid — even "frank" as the diplomats say -- level of engagement, a lot of positive feeling and trust built up, an eagerness for this group to continue engaging and — perhaps — make some progress. Dan Reifsnyder, an OES DAS who's been here a long time, said it was best meeting of this kind he has seen in 20 years. Issues still damnably difficult, but a pretty palpable sense in the room that something good had happened. Hearty congrats from the Chinese, UK, Japanese, Aussies, EU, Danes, Swedes, South Africans, etc. Mike Froman did an excellent job as Chair (I was head of U.S. delegation), and Steve Chu and John Holdren did very useful presentations yesterday. Heads of delegation met with President in Blue Room for a reception late yesterday afternoon, which went over big. Mike and I met with President in Oval beforehand. Reception at Kennedy Center in evening for whole delegations, plus people from Hill, NG0s, etc., yesterday. Sen. Kerry spoke. We followed up with a long bilateral with China and then a private dinner with the UK. More bilats tomorrow. Next meeting of the Forum May 25-26 in Paris.
