The President's Export Control Directives -
The Government Perspective


On January 22, 2008 the President issued long-awaited directives intended to "support the National Security Strategy of 2006, while facilitating the United States' continued international economic and technological leadership." The main tenant of the new directives is reform of the export licensing procedures at the Department of State and Department of Commerce. The new directives stemmed from discussions between the Administration and several industry groups. Join Women In International Trade for a luncheon discussion on the new export control directives featuring:


Frank Ruggiero
Deputy Assistant Secretary, Defense Trade and Regional Security

U.S. Department of State

And
