Interview Requests

We'll be better able to set up an interview to meet your needs if you answer the questions in Helpful Hints first, then use the following information to contact us.  Our database of Newsmakers enables you to quickly find an expert at the Department to provide insight, analysis, and expertise on foreign affairs, news and events. Searches can be made by name, issue, position or language spoken. Once you've identified the expert you want to interview, our staff will set up an interview for television, radio, or print media.
