EU-USA: US establishes a full-time attache from the Department of Homeland Security to the EU
01 January 2005
US Secretary of Homeland Security, Tom Ridge, announced on 13 January that that the United States will establish a full-time attache from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to the European Union. "This new position is not only symbolic of our commitment to increased cooperation, but, by having a direct link between the Secretary and negotiating partners across Europe, it will allow for constant communication on an operational level," he said.
