Послы Соединенных Штатов - это лица, назначенные президентом в качестве послов для работы в качестве дипломатов Соединенных Штатов в отдельных странах мира, в международных организациях и в качестве послов по особым поручениям . Их назначение должно быть подтверждено в Сенате Соединенных Штатов . [1] Посол может быть назначен во время перерыва , но он или она может служить послом только до конца следующей сессии Конгресса, если это не будет подтверждено впоследствии. [2] Послы служат «по воле президента», то есть могут быть уволены в любой момент. Назначения регулярно меняются по разным причинам, например, при переводе на другую работу или выходе на пенсию.
Посол может быть кадровым сотрудником дипломатической службы (кадровый дипломат - CD) или политическим назначенцем (PA). В большинстве случаев карьерные офицеры дипломатической службы служат в течение примерно трех лет на должность посла, тогда как политические назначенцы обычно подают в отставку после инаугурации нового президента. Поскольку посольства подпадают под юрисдикцию Государственного департамента , послы подчиняются непосредственно Государственному секретарю .
Государственный департамент США предоставляют списки послов , которые периодически обновляются. [3] ( Последний список был опубликован 4 декабря 2018 г. [4] Еще 24 кандидата были утверждены 2 января 2019 г., и ряд постов послов остаются вакантными.) Список бывших глав миссий по странам сохраняется. в бюро историка Госдепартамента США . [5] Этот же офис ведет список имен и дат назначения прошлых и нынешних послов по особым поручениям [6], а также руководителей миссий в международных организациях. [7]Эта информация также может быть доступна на последних страницах вышеупомянутых периодически обновляемых списков зарубежных послов. [3]
Текущие послы США [ править ]
Обратите внимание, что информация в этом списке может изменяться в связи с регулярными кадровыми изменениями в результате выхода на пенсию и переназначений. Госдепартамент публикует обновленные списки послов примерно ежемесячно, доступные через интерактивный веб-сайт с меню. [8]

Special Envoys, Representatives and Coordinators[edit]
These diplomatic officials report directly to the Secretary of State. Many oversee a portfolio not restricted to one nation, often an overall goal, and are not usually subject to Senate confirmation.[87][82][88] Unlike the State Department offices and diplomats listed in other sections of this Article, the offices and special envoys/representatives/coordinators listed in this Section are created and staffed by direction of top Federal Executive administrators – primarily U.S. Presidents and Secretaries of State – whose political or organizational management philosophies may not be shared by their successors.[89][90][91] As such, many of these positions may go unfilled upon assumption of office by successor Presidential Administrations, with their offices sometimes merged with or subsumed into other offices, or abolished altogether.

Nations without exchange of ambassadors[edit]
- Bhutan: According to the U.S. State Department, "The United States and the Kingdom of Bhutan have not established formal diplomatic relations; however, the two governments have informal and cordial relations."[120] Informal contact with the nation of Bhutan is maintained through the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi.[120]
- Iran: On April 7, 1980, the United States broke diplomatic relations with Iran after the 1979 Iranian Revolution.[121] On April 24, 1981, the Swiss government assumed representation of U.S. interests in Tehran, and Algeria assumed representation of Iranian interests in the United States.[122] Currently, Iranian interests in the United States are represented by the government of Pakistan. The U.S. Department of State named Iran a "State Sponsor of Terrorism" on January 19, 1984.[123]
- North Korea: The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is not on friendly terms with the United States, and while talks between the two countries are ongoing, there is no exchange of ambassadors. Sweden functions as Protective Power for the United States in Pyongyang and performs limited consular responsibilities for U.S. citizens in North Korea.[124]
- Taiwan: With the normalization of relations with the People's Republic of China in 1979, the United States has not maintained official diplomatic relations with Taiwan. Relations between Taiwan and the United States are maintained through an unofficial instrumentality, the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office, with headquarters in Taipei and field offices in Washington, D.C., and twelve other U.S. cities. The Taipei Office of the American Institute in Taiwan, a non-profit, public corporation, functions as a de facto embassy, performing most consular functions and staffed by Foreign Service Officers who are formally "on leave".[125]
Notable past ambassadors[edit]
Many well-known individuals have served the United States as ambassadors, or in formerly analogous positions such as envoy, including several who also became President of the United States (indicated in boldface below). Some notable ambassadors have included:
