The U.S. Mission promotes strong bilateral ties between the United States and the Netherlands and works actively to increase cooperation on counter terrorism, enhance U.S. economic prosperity, fight international crime and drugs, and deepen mutual understanding between the Netherlands and the United States.  The U.S. Mission carries out these tasks by working with the Netherlands as a NATO and coalition partner; by promoting shared goals between the United States and the EU, of which the Netherlands is a member; by advocating U.S. trade policy goals and U.S. business and commercial interests; and by working with law enforcement agencies in the Netherlands to fight transnational crime.
