Richard Holbrooke

 

>To brand, or not to brand U.S. foreign aid? That was the question for Richard Holbrooke, former U.S. special representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan. During the devastating floods in Pakistan in 2010, Holbrooke’s choice to wear a USAID-branded baseball hat apparently sparked some local commentary, which fed back to the special representative and led to some questions about how visible U.S. insignia should be. Vali Nasr, Holbrooke’s senior adviser at the time, first drew attention to the hat frenzy.

 

>The following exchange took place on Sept. 16, 2010.

 

>Nasr: “Seems like Pakistani press is taking particular interest in RCH baseball cap.”

 

>Holbrooke: “Does that have deeper meaning, Dr Freud?”

 

>Nasr: “I don't know but there seems to be a lot of commentary about your cap; does it say something like a ‘gift from the US?"

>Richard Charles Albert Holbrooke (April 24, 1941 – December 13, 2010) was an American diplomat, magazine editor, author, professor, Peace Corps official, and investment banker.

 

>He was the only person to have held the position of Assistant Secretary of State for two different regions of the world (Asia from 1977 to 1981 and Europe from 1994 to 1996).

 

>From 1993 to 1994, he was U.S. Ambassador to Germany. Long well known in diplomatic and journalistic circles, Holbrooke achieved great public prominence when he, together with former Swedish prime minister Carl Bildt, brokered a peace agreement among the warring factions in Bosnia that led to the signing of the Dayton Peace Accords, in 1995. Holbrooke was a leading contender to succeed the retiring Warren Christopher as Secretary of State but was passed over in 1996 as President Bill Clinton chose Madeleine Albright instead. From 1999 to 2001, Holbrooke served as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.
