WASHINGTON, Aug. 14 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — If all good things come in
twos, what can top two mission directors in one family? Roberta Mahoney is
the new mission director to Albania and her husband, David McCloud, is the new
mission director to Bosnia and Herzegovina. They received their promotions
today after being sworn in together by Henrietta Fore, the U.S. Agency for
International Development’s (USAID) administrator.

The couple’s lives have followed similar paths before and after they
married in 1976 after meeting at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Both were Peace Corps volunteers in Fiji and both joined USAID as
international development interns in the 1980s — Mahoney in 1984, McCloud in
1988. Now, they head missions in nearby, almost neighboring nations.

In Albania, Mahoney will direct a mission in a nation the administrator
called a valued peacekeeping partner in the war against terrorism that “plays
a vital role in the Balkans promoting peace, security and ethnic
reconciliation.” In Bosnia and Herzegovina, said Fore, McCloud takes control
of a mission where USAID has invested more than $1 billion since 1995,
restoring that nation’s infrastructure and economy and “strengthening the
market chain that resulted in more than 1,500 jobs and investments in
agriculture.”

During her career, Mahoney served as an economics officer in both
USAID/Kenya and in USAID/Malawi, as well as an associate mission director in
USAID’s Egypt mission. In Washington, she served in several positions within
USAID, including those in its Africa and Europe and Eurasia Bureaus. Her most
recent position was in USAID’s Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean as
director of the Office for Resources for Sustainable Development. Mahoney
earned master’s degrees in regional planning from the University of
California, Los Angeles and natural resource economics and international trade
from the University of Wisconsin.

McCloud was a program officer in Egypt, Malawi and Kenya and held senior
positions in the Africa and Management Bureaus in Washington. He was most
recently director of the Middle East Affairs Office before becoming mission
director. He earned master’s degrees in African studies and public
administration from the University of California, Los Angeles.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — NAAC hails the will of the Albanian people of Kosova for having earned the right to declare itself free and independent! We greatly honor your courage, honor and dignity!

On Sunday, February 17, 2008, the newly elected government of the Republic of Kosova declared its independence, in full compliance with internationally accepted economic, political and social laws; and subsequently has been recognized by the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and a daily growing list of countries from Europe, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, and Near and Far Asia.

On Thursday, February 21, 2008, Serbian authorities organized a rally in the Serbian capital of Belgrade in opposition to Kosova’s independence, having declared all schools closed, and offering free bus and train services to interested demonstrators. A few hours after Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica addressed the crowd, the embassies of the United States, Britain, Germany, Slovenia, and Turkey, were attacked by Serbian mobs, and an unidentified charred body was found inside the United States Embassy. By international Conventions, each Embassy is the legal property of the guest country and the host country is legally obligated to provide necessary protection. The United States, having already removed from its Embassy all personnel deemed non-essential, and along with other states, has notified the Serbian authorities that they are being directly held responsible for the damages.

Now the Serbian authorities are attempting to incite riots in the northern city of Mitrovica, to spread panic and fear to the Serbs living below the city, so that they will flee across the Ibar river which runs across the middle of the city, to try to partition Kosova. The international community, NATO forces and international police have already made clear that they will not allow that to happen. NAAC calls upon the Serbs from Kosova to distance themselves from those using hatred and violence, tools of the past to create animosity. The politicians of Serbia must now accept what even their own people already know — that Kosova is already independent!

The Kosova politicians have endorsed the broadest minority rights possible in Europe, and have agreed to provide protection of all ethnic cultural and religious institutions for all its inhabitants; and further agreed to collaborate with a European Union approved monitoring institution, EULEX, comprised mainly of judges and police, to guarantee implementation.

The Albanian people of Kosova have demonstrated, again and again, through their cultural, spiritual and moral adherence, that they want to live in an independent and free Kosova, which will a multiethnic and multicultural society.
