Middle East Envoy?
November 7th, 2008 by Tariq
An editorial in the Financial Times made a bold suggestion today. If Obama remains serious about the “tough-minded diplomacy” he spoke of on the campaign trail, then “[h]e should signal his intent by naming soon a special envoy for the Middle East with plenipotentiary powers to mediate and negotiate on behalf of his incoming administration. That would be change and it would quickly be perceived as such. Bill Clinton, the former president, is probably the best man for the job.”
