Group Claims Investing Abroad Helps U.S. Interests
Monday, October 10, 2005
Washington, D.C. - Scripps Howard Foundation Wire - infoZine - The Center for Global Engagement, a new U.S. government group, recognized 12 success stories of American investments abroad at a news conference Thursday.
The business and organizations have been working in projects all over the world, with the support of U.S. international affairs budget. They support the idea that investing abroad helps to increase U.S. national security, improves the U.S. economy and strengthens democracies and humanitarian values.

U.S. investment in the Amazon forest was one of the program the center pointed out. The American company Raytheon worked to create and operate a system that monitors the Amazon area in Brazil to help the government know what is happening there.
Raytheon won an international competition and was selected by the Brazilian government to run a system called Sivam, which includes satellites, network systems and sensors.
The effort employs more than a thousand Americans, said Mathew G. Gilligan, a Raytheon vice president and Sivam program manager. Brazil was given loans of more than $1 billion by the Export/Import Bank, which is funded by the U.S. international affairs budget, for the project.
