  • President Nominates New U.S. Ambassador to the U.N.
    President Bush recently nominated current U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, Zalmay Khalilzad, to be the new U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. The move comes nearly one month after Ambassador John Bolton told the president that he would terminate his service in the Bush Administration after his recess appointment expired at the end of 2006. Mr. Bolton’s nomination was repeatedly blocked by the Senate and was heavily contested by Citizens for Global Solutions and an array of other advocacy organizations that want to see the U.S. restore its 60-year leadership and partnership with the U.N.

  • Bolton Resigns; Grassroots Effort Pays Off
    United States Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton told President Bush that he would resign from his recess appointed position. Mr. Bolton’s nomination has been repeatedly blocked by the Senate and was heavily contested by Citizens for Global Solutions and an array of other advocacy organizations that want to see the U.S. restore its 60-year leadership and partnership with the U.N.

  • U.S. Recognizes Counterproductive Foreign Policy: Bush waives aid cuts for ICC member states
    Citizens for Global Solutions welcomes President Bush’s move on Tuesday to waive a U.S. law that prevents some nations that support the International Criminal Court from receiving U.S. foreign assistance. The waiver is recognition of a counterproductive U.S. policy toward ICC member states. Specifically, President Bush’s decision allows millions of dollars of Economic Support Funds (ESF) to be provided to countries that are members of the Court and have refused to sign Bilateral Immunity Agreements (BIAs) with the U.S.

  • U.S. Recognizes Counterproductive BIA Policy
    Citizens for Global Solutions welcomes Congressional passage of an amendment to the American Servicemembers Protection Act (ASPA) that recognizes the counterproductive U.S. policy toward ICC member states. Specifically the amendment exempts what senior military officials in the U.S. believe to be important international military education and training (IMET) aid from being cut to countries that are members of the Court. We also see as significant President Bush’s Oct 2nd memorandum waiving IMET cuts to these 21 countries.

  • Citizens for Global Solutions Re-launches Website StopBolton.org
    With a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing scheduled for this Thursday on the renomination of U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton, Citizens for Global Solutions has re-launched the www.stopbolton.org website. The website illustrates that Bolton, who has served in the position for the past year under a recess appointment from President Bush, is failing to achieve U.S. interests—a goal the U.S. Mission to the U.N. declares its modus operandi—by alienating allies and isolating the U.S. in the world.

  • Ambassador Bolton up for Renomination: Politics May Trump Policy in Senate Committee Hearing
    At a moment when the world is coming together to meet major global challenges like nuclear weapons proliferation and genocide, President Bush and his allies in the Senate have decided that the single most important foreign policy issue facing the U.S. is getting John Bolton confirmed. The White House’s decision to reopen Mr. Bolton’s confirmation battle seems to have more to do with electoral politics and less to do with foreign policy.
