DOES THE CIA MAKE AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY?

6 August 2022

Does America have a foreign policy strategy and if so, who is running it? ... is it the CIA, sitting in the Pentagon?

How foreign policy is made

-You are supposed to start with your vision/goals/aims.
-Then you turn these vague wishes into measurable objectives.
-Then for each you need resources, and so a strategy:  a strategy is what you'll create to plan best use of resources to achieve your objectives.
-Then, you get to the policies, which are the rules governing running the strategy; and the organisation units you need to man the processes.

The machinery of government

The DoD, Blinken and Powell, are sitting in the Pentagon running foreign policy over 

Executive. Biden in the White House and 

Legislative. Congress. The Senate Foreign Reln.s Cttee and the House Cttee on Foreign Affairs, 

On behalf of The People.
