Greetings, Director/Gina, and congrats! You are admirably prepared for your wonderful new endeavor � as I observed in a piece in the
Cypher Brief this morning � and I know you will do a great job at the helm of the Agency. If there is ever anything I can do to help, please
don't hesitate to ask.
I write to encourage you to see if you can join the extraordinary folks who will be at this year's Bilderberg meeting in Turin (you received
the formal invitation, also attached, earlier this morning). I have attended each of the past five years and cannot commend it too highly
to you. The attendees are uniquely high quality (Henry Kissinger, Eric Schmidt, Henry Kravis, PM Rutte, the German Def Minister, John
Sawers, etc., etc.) and the meeting discussions are strictly off the record. You would likely be asked to do a "conversation" (vice a speech),
and I think that would provide an extraordinary opportunity to engage with some of the western world's true "influencers." It would be
great if you could attend the entire gathering, but I'm sure folks would accommodate whatever time you could spend with the group.
More info on the gathering is here: http://bilderbergmeetings.org/conferences.html
Should you or your team have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. (I should note that Mike Pompeo had planned to attend, but
had to change his plans when he moved to Foggy Bottom.)
All best/congrats again � Dave
