All embassies, missions, consulates general, and con­ sulates are listed. At the head of each U.S. diplomatic mission are the Chief of Mission (with the title of Ambassador, Minister or Charge d'Affaires) and the Deputy Chief of (Mission. These officers are responsible for all com­ ponents of the U.S. Mission within a country, includ­ ing consular posts. Economic/Commercial Officers represent the en- tire spectrum of U.S. economic and commercial in­ terests within their country of assignment. Their ac­ tivities range from trade promotion to economic re­ porting. At larger posts, where trade volume, travel, and private investment interest are high, there are Commercial Officers who specialize in export pro­ motion, arrange appointments with local business and government officials, and provide maximum as­ sistance to American business. Financial Attaches analyze and report on major financial developments and their implications for U.S. policies and programs. Political Officers analyze and report on political developments and their potential impact on U.S. interests. Labor Officers follow the activities of labor or­ ganizations and can supply information on wages, nonwage costs, social security regulations, labor atti­ tudes toward American investments, etc. Consular Officers extend to U.S. citizens and their property abroad the protection of the U.S. Govern­ ment. They maintain lists of local attorneys, act as liaison with police and other officials and have the authority to notarize documents. The Department recommends that business representatives residing overseas register with the consular officer; in troubled areas, even travelers are advised to register. The Administrative Officer is responsible for the normal business operations of the post, including purchasing for the post and its commissary. Regional Security Officers are responsible for providing physical, procedural, and personnel secu­ rity services to U.S. diplomatic facilities and per­ sonnel; their responsibilities extend to providing in- country security briefings and threat assessments to business executives. Scientific Attaches follow scientific and techno­ logical developments in the country. Agricultural Officers promote the export of U.S. agricultural products and report on agricultural pro­ duction and market developments in their area. The AID Mission Director is responsible for AID programs, including dollar and local currency loans, grants, and technical assistance. The Public Affairs Officer is the p'ost's press and cultural affairs specialist, and maintains close con­ tact with the local press. Business representatives planning a trip over­ seas should include in their preparations a visit or telephone call to the nearest U.S. Department of Commerce District Office. The District Office can provide extensive information and assistance as well as a current list of legal holidays in the countries to be visited. If desired, the District Officer can also provide advance notice to posts abroad of the repre­ sentative's visit. Some of the services jointly provided by the De­ partments of State and Commerce to U.S. business firms interested in establishing a market for their products, or expanding sales abroad, include: —The Trade Opportunities Program (TOP) which provides specific export sales leads of U.S. products and services; —World Traders Data Report (WTDR) which pro­ vides detailed financial and commercial informa­ tion on individual firms abroad upon request from U.S. companies; —Agent Distributor Service (ADS) which helps U.S. firms find agents or distributors to represent their firms and market their products abroad; and —Information about foreign markets for U.S. products and services and U.S.-sponsored ex­ hibitions abroad in which American firms can participate and demonstrate their products to key foreign buyers. In all matters pertaining to foreign trade, the nearest U.S. Department of Commerce District Of­ fice should be your first point of contact. Foreign trade specialists at these facilities render valuable assistance to U.S. business representatives engaged in international commerce. For additional information about Foreign Service activities overseas, or for specialized assistance with unusual problems, you are invited to visit, tele- III phone, or write the Office of Business and Export Affairs (formerly the Office of Commercial Affairs), Bureau of Economic and Business Affairs, U.S. De­ partment of State, Washington, D.C. 20520.

  • Algerian Politics: Outlook and Regional Implications
    MENU Policy Analysis / PolicyWatch 127 Algerian Politics: Outlook and Regional Implications Sep 14, 1994 Brief Analysis n September 14, 1994, Amb. Mary Ann Casey, who just finished a tour as U.S. ambassador to Algeria, and Dr. O Gideon Gera, the Meyerhoff Fellow at The Washington Institute, addressed The Institute's Policy Forum on the prospects and implications of a potential Islamic takeover in Algeria. The following is a rapporteur's summary of their off-the-record remarks. AMBASSADOR MARY ANN CASEY Precarious Circumstances in Algeria The United States is concerned about the unstable domestic situation in Algeria. Algerian government efforts at crushing the insurgency have failed and the cycle of political violence fueled by opposition forces continues. The violent uprising stems from frustrations attributed to political exclusion, economic misery, and a feeling of social injustice. Since the suspension of the electoral process in January 1992, violence between the regime's military forces and the armed insurgents has increased. Two groups at the helm of the opposition forces include the FIS (Islamic Salvation Front) and GIA (Armed Islamic Group). Unlike the FIS, the GIA opposes negotiations with the military government. In the past twelve months, the GIA has been responsible for over sixty fatal attacks, and the strength and public support of the FIS is on the rise. Repression of the Islamic revolutionaries by the military has not succeeded in stymieing their movement. The Algerian government needs to broaden the political base through inclusion and dialogue with opposition groups, including non-violent and Islamist opposition, because a solely military response to the conflict does not appear feasible.
