The Bureau of Counterterrorism is a bureau of the United States Department of State. It coordinates all U.S. Government efforts to improve counter-terrorism cooperation with foreign governments and participates in the development, coordination, and implementation of American counterterrorism policy. In June 2007, Ambassador-at-Large Dell Dailey was appointed to be the Coordinator for Counterterrorism. Under Secretary Clinton, the Coordinator for Counterterrorism from 2009 to 2012 was Ambassador-at-Large Daniel Benjamin. The current Coordinator for Counterterrorism is Tina S. Kaidanow. ==Aims== The United States Counterterrorism Policy has four main aims: * to make no concessions to terrorists and strike no deals; * to bring terrorists to justice for their crimes; * to isolate and apply pressure on states that sponsor terrorism to force them to change their behavior; and * to bolster the counter-terrorism capabilities of those countries that work with the U.S. and require assistance. Regarding international terrorism, the U.S. Government will make no concessions to individuals or groups holding official or private U.S. citizens hostage. The United States will use every appropriate resource to gain the safe return of American citizens held hostage. At the same time, it is U.S. Government policy to deny hostage takers the benefits of ransom, prisoner releases, policy changes, or other acts of concession. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bureau of Counterterrorism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
