Just signed the participation agreement for @expo_beograd — the next iteration of the modern World’s Fair, to be held in Belgrade next summer. The United States and Serbia have entered a new era of bilateral relations, and expo will be a great opportunity to highlight our friendship and commercial ties. The theme of the expo is “Play for Humanity.” American companies, inventors, athletes and artists obviously excel here — and we look forward to partnering with and showcasing them.
It follows in the tradition of another masterful #DiplomaticGift from the UK to the USA: the Resolute desk, a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford Hayes in 1880, also finding a place in the Oval Office. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Absolutely, truly impeccable. Kudos to the official who came up with this idea, and found it. I honestly doubt that a gift given by one head of state has ever so genuinely delighted another. It won't look out of place on the mantelpiece of the Oval Office.
The silencing of VOA is “un-American and outrageous”, says Nicolas Cull, historian, pioneer scholar and educator in the field of public diplomacy. He also warns about the dangers posed by VOA not communicating American ideals of press freedom around the world. #SaveVOA @NickCull
