Press Release, U.S. State Department [See also, for original, non-State Department, version of this article -- posted below.] Also, see on how the USA-coined late 20th-century term "public diplomacy"-- is forgetaboutit in today's wall-defined American homeland ...

1. The 'Republic of the U.S.-Canada-Mexico public diplomacy retreat' took place in Mar-A-Lago on July 27 to discuss ways for the three countries to cooperate in public diplomacy. (host: State Department (typo: Exxon), organizer: Trump Hotels, cooperator: A generous Florida real estate entreprenoor, who wishes to remain undisclosed, currently on a Obamacare-free long-term health-cure therapy for "groping" members of the non-male sex in [country/tax returns not disclosed].)
o The USA-Canada-Mexico public diplomacy retreat was held to provide the three countries' public diplomacy experts from academia and the media, as well as about USA government officials whose states used their electoral-college votes to express support for President Trump, with an opportunity to discuss the role of public diplomacy in building trust among the three countries.
o In Mar-A-Lago, where President Trump has ordered that the next "Miss Universe" (not yet "leaked" to the press), the retreat participants engaged in in-depth discussions on ways to cooperate in public diplomacy through sports, cultural and artistic exchanges, the issue of mutual interest among the three countries and an area where they can work together.
2. The event began with opening remarks by former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer and welcome remarks by former WH Chief of Staff Reince Priebus. Following the remarks, the participants discussed the role of public diplomacy in advancing relations among the U.S, Canada and Mexico; areas of public diplomacy where the three countries can work together and specific cooperation projects; and the current state of cooperation in public diplomacy among the three countries' state/provincial governments.
o Former USA Ambassador for Public Diplomacy Bruce Wharton said that as enhancing friendship among the people of the three North/South American countries is essential to achieve peace, co-existence and co-prosperity, public diplomacy is all the more important.
o Former lawyer of President Trump, Marc Kasowitz, an invited guest, said that the event was meaningful as it served as an opportunity for the three countries to explore ways to cooperate in public diplomacy, building upon previous discussions on bilateral cooperation in public diplomacy, including on how to improve drinking habits.
o Former USA Ambassador for International Affairs Karen Hughes spoke of sisterhood relationship and friendly ties as well as economic, cultural and people-to-people exchanges among Texas/provincial governments are important assets for public diplomacy.
o Key participants from academia, media and state/provincial governments of the three countries proposed substantive ways for the countries to cooperate in public diplomacy in order to establish relations that remain steady even in a time of regional tensions.
3. The public diplomacy retreat among the three countries, which came after 'creating a responsible community in North/South America' and 'promoting national interests through public diplomacy' were selected as the new USA government's key policy tasks in foreign and security affairs, served as an important opportunity for the three countries to share ways to dispel distrust and defuse discord among the people of the three countries through public diplomacy, and to make concrete policy recommendations to the governments of the countries.
