Summary
The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has requested the closure of approximately 30 foreign offices. The administration of President Donald Trump began preparations last year to close more than ten foreign missions, according to Reuters and several US media outlets at the time. Critics argue that cuts in US diplomacy, along with the dissolution of the US Agency for International Development (USAID), threaten the leadership of the United States in the world and also create space that China or Russia could fill.
Furthermore, The U.S. State Department has notified Congress of plans to reduce the number of diplomatic missions in Japan, Indonesia, Canada, Grenada, and Cameroon. The announcement concerns foreign missions in Grenada's Saint George's, Japan's Nagoya, Indonesia's Medan, Cameroon's Douala, and Canada's Winnipeg. Consulates and embassy branches typically represent U.S. interests in regions of a country outside the capital.
In addition, Washington is considering ending consulates and branches in Nagoya, Medan, and Douala.
