US Ambassadors to Croatia
and Croatian Desk Officers at
the US State Department
The NFCACF has a long history of working closely with and supporting US Ambassadors to the Republic of Croatia in many mutually beneficial ways. We have established a significantly productive working relationship with seven of the nine US Ambassadors dispatched to Zagreb since Croatia was declared a new nation-state in the early 1990s. Our organization has also collaborated with and supported American diplomats based in Washington at the U.S. State Department who have served as Croatian Desk Officers.

Public Affairs NGOs,
Foreign Policy Think Tanks,
and related Advocacy Groups
The NFCACF has a long history of building beneficial relationships with various non-partisan groups and so-called ‘think tanks’ that examine US global leadership. This special and complex relationship building yields progressive engagement with our American allies and important NATO partners. Specific organizations in these regards have included the Wilson Center, the Atlantic Council, the US Institute for Peace, Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), the International Crisis Group (ICG), the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) – also known as the Helsinki Commission.
