发帖数: 5818 | 1 foreign consulting work prompts questions
As presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden narrows down his
choices for a running mate, some are calling for a deeper dive into one of
the contender’s past work as a private consultant.
Susan Rice, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations under President
Barack Obama, worked in the White House and State Department under
President Bill Clinton earlier in her career. After Clinton left office,
Rice went into private consulting – a common move by former Washington
officials but one that sometimes involves shadowy deals with less-than-
savory foreign actors whose connections could come back to haunt the
government worker should he or she return to public service.
In Rice’s case, as HuffPost reported, this could be particularly concerning
given that she has kept under wraps the names of her clients she
represented between 2001 and 2002 when she worked part-time for the now-
defunct geopolitical research firm Intellibridge. |
