Посольство Австралии на 1601 Massachusetts Ave NW, Вашингтон, округ Колумбия

Посол Австралии в Соединенных Штатах является сотрудник австралийского департамента иностранных дел и торговли и директор Посольства Австралии в Соединенных Штатах Америки в Вашингтоне, округ Колумбия . Это третий по возрасту посольский пост в Австралии после Высоких комиссий в Лондоне (1910 г.) и Оттаве (1939 г.). Эта должность имеет ранг и статус Чрезвычайного и Полномочного Посла, и в настоящее время это Артур Синодинос , занимающий эту должность с 7 февраля 2020 года. [1] Работе посла помогают несколько консульств по всей стране, которые несут ответственность за посещения и отчетность, а также консульские и торговые вопросы для посольства.

26 мая 2019 года премьер - министр Скотт Моррисон объявил, наряду с новыми номинациям кабинета, что он будет рекомендовать сенатор для Нового Южного Уэльса Артур Синодинос заменить Джо Hockey послом в Соединенных Штатах , когда истекает срок их хоккея в начале 2020 г. [2] [3 ] Синодинос заменил Хоккей в феврале 2020 года. [4]

История сообщений [ править ]

Соединенные Штаты и Австралия поддерживают официальные дипломатические отношения с 1 марта 1940 года, когда Австралия открыла дипломатическую миссию в Вашингтоне в качестве одного из своих первых независимых постов. До этого Австралия была представлена посольством Великобритании в Вашингтоне либо через представителя правительства Австралии, либо просто британскими официальными лицами от имени Австралии. В 1929 году премьер-министр Стэнли Брюс назначил Герберта Брукса «Генеральным комиссаром США» с мандатом на продвижение «австралийских достижений в экономической, музыкальной, художественной, литературной и интеллектуальной областях». Однако в следующем году Джеймс Скаллин вспомнил о Бруксе.(Преемник Брюса) в качестве меры экономии во время депрессии. [5] [6] В 1937 году Джозеф Лайонс (преемник Скаллина) назначил Кейта Офицера офицером связи в британском посольстве с дипломатическим рангом «Советник». Офицер проработал на этой должности до февраля 1940 года, когда он стал поверенным в делах до прибытия Кейси в качестве первого министра. [7] [8]

Первоначально созданная как миссия под руководством Чрезвычайного Посланника и Полномочного министра , 19 июля 1946 года дипломатический представитель получил статус посольства, а австралийский министр Фредерик Эгглстон стал первым послом. Эта работа считается очень желанной, и политические деятели регулярно публикуются. Несколько выдающихся австралийцев служили послом в Соединенных Штатах, включая будущего генерал-губернатора Австралии ( Ричард Кейси ), будущего главного судьи Австралии (сэр Оуэн Диксон ), будущего губернатора Тасмании ( Джеймс Плимсолл ), двух бывших федеральных властей.лидеры оппозиции ( Эндрю Пикок и Ким Бизли ) и бывший казначей Австралии ( Джо Хоккей ).

Consulates[edit]

From 1993 to August 2012, there existed a Consulate-General in Atlanta, Georgia, which was managed by Austrade. The consulate's closure was due to a realignment of resources "to growing and emerging markets like Mongolia and Colombia." After its closure, the consulate's reporting responsibilities for the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina and South Carolina were transferred to the Australian Embassy in Washington.[15] From 12 September 1994 to his death on 11 June 2017, there existed an Honorary Consulate in Denver, Colorado, held by Mark O'Regan, an Australian-born Denver realtor and former civil servant in the Territory of Papua New Guinea.[16] From 7 December 1999 to his death on 6 November 2013, the Honorary Consul in Miami, Florida, was Thomas Flynn.[17] Flynn was appointed as an Honorary Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for his service as honorary consul in 2005.[18]

The consulate-general was opened in 1993 under Austrade management.[19] The consulate was closed in August 2012 following an Austrade restructure.

Originally a Trade Commission from 1965, the post was upgraded to a Consulate-General from 3 March 1971 and was closed during a period of budget cuts to Foreign Affairs on 1 July 1976. The consulate reopened in September 1978 and management was transferred from DFAT to Austrade in October 1992. DFAT resumed management from November 1999.[43]
