KUDOS TO EMBASSY AMMAN

UNCLAS STATE 025548 SIPDIS FROM AA/S FELTMAN TO AMBASSADOR BEECROFT E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: AMGT APER JO SUBJECT: KUDOS TO EMBASSY AMMAN Steve, Thank you for the exceptional support the mission provided during my recent visit. From the front office to the motorpool, it's clear your team is one of our best. I would like to especially thank my control officer Hanan Cohen who oversaw all details with patience and professionalism. Phil Frayne ensured our public affairs strategy was on target, while Raj Wadhwani stepped in to meet some last-minute needs. Your GSO and RSO teams executed every logistical and security detail with precision. Last but certainly not least, thanks to you and to DCM Larry Mandel for your local policy guidance and leadership in ensuring the visit met our strategic objectives. I know most Congressional and Administration visitors to the region stop in Jordan, which keeps the entire mission very busy and takes a toll on your resources. Your team's efforts help Washington decision makers gain valuable context, which results in a better understanding of the strategic importance of the bilateral relationship, and better policy. I expect the heavy visits load will continue, and I want to assure the mission that all of us in Washington stand by ready to support you. Thanks again to the entire mission for the high standard you set in NEA. Best, Jeff CLINTON
