INTRODUCTION
The United States Mission in Spain comprises the American Embassy in
Madrid and the Consulate General of the United
States in Barcelona. The many agencies of the United States Government
that constitute the Mission work as a team to advance American interests
and promote relations between the American and Spanish governments and
people. They shape and carry out American relations with Spain, have an
active public diplomacy program, provide
consular services to American citizens and
visa services to citizens of other countries
who wish to visit or who qualify
to immigrate to the United States, and promote trade and investment between
our two countries. They work with Spanish counterparts to protect shared
political, economic, and security interests through multilateral organizations
including NATO, the United Nations, and a host of other important bodies.
They work closely with the Spanish government on such issues as Bosnia,
the Middle East, and European security.
Officials of the Department of State oversee traditional diplomacy and
provide consular services in Madrid and Barcelona.
Commerce Department representatives in Madrid
are available to American exporters who wish to increase their activity in the Spanish market,
and officials of the Department of Agriculture
at the Embassy in Madrid offer similar services to their clients. The
Public Affairs Section in Madrid and
Barcelona welcome
public and press inquiries about every aspect of the United States and
work to foster mutual understanding through exchanges of persons and ideas
and by administering
educational and
cultural programs.
The Documentation Service
provides reference and documentation services, using printed and electronic
sources.
