State Dept. Faces Staffing Crisis, a Report Says
By AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE
WASHINGTON —
Saddled by the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, the State Department
faces a staff shortage crisis amid “worsening morale,” according to an
independent study that blames Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for
the problem.
The report, by the influential Foreign Affairs Council, an
organization of retired American diplomats and ambassadors that
monitors United States diplomacy and State Department management, said
that about 200 existing jobs — mostly overseas — were unfilled and
that the department needed an additional 900 training slots to provide
essential language skills and other expertise.
