Historical Documents: Foreign Relations of the United States
Foreign Relations Volumes
The Foreign Relations of the United States (FRUS) series presents the official documentary historical record of major U.S. foreign policy decisions and significant diplomatic activity.
Please note that while all of the FRUS volumes from our previous website are being migrated to this website, a smaller selection of volumes will be available here. Please browse the volumes that are available via the "Volumes" menu in the left sidebar, or find links to all FRUS volumes organized by administration via the links above or the "Browse by Administration" menu in the left sidebar.
Foreign Relations Themes
Foreign Relations Themes explore foreign relations topics through small document collections from the FRUS volumes. Each Theme contains 5-6 documents along with a summary of the event.
