United States Embassy Briefing Packet

In all likelihood the facilitator to the oil industry negotiations will be the United States Embassy. More than any other coalition power assisting in the rebuilding of Iraq, the United States has the most at stake in the successful transition of Iraq to a stable, prosperous democracy. Indeed, the United States has more troops in Iraq than any other foreign power. The primary American goal in Iraq is to create a stable, peaceful democracy, which is not a threat to its neighbors and in which all Iraqis can peacefully co-exist. One of the main objectives of the U.S. Embassy is the creation of an oil policy that allows for equalized ownership and distribution of oil revenue throughout Iraq for the benefit of all Iraqis. The U.S. Embassy can also assist the negotiations by providing technical assistance and serving as a liaison between the various Iraqi groups. The United States may also suggest methods for ownership or distribution of oil in Iraq.
