Congratulations to Senator George Mitchell

Washington, DC – January 27th, 2009

President Barack Obama selected former Senator George Mitchell as a special Envoy to the Middle East, noting his crucial work in the Irish Peace Process of 1998.
 
We congratulate the President’s choice, and wish Senator Mitchell the very best as he embarks on one of his toughest international relations challenges yet.
 
We were honored by the Senator’s appearance in a video we helped to produce with London’s Silverfish TV for Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern’s re-election campaign in 2007. Senator Mitchell is joined by British PM Tony Blair and U.S. President Bill Clinton as they discuss the obstacles that had to be overcome to achieve that historic peace treaty.
