Was dem us-amerikanischen Außenministerium wichtig ist

Bisher hielt MediaWatchBlog es nicht für nötig, wikileaks Dokumente im Original zu zitieren. Doch bei dieser Liste von ausländischen Einrichtungen mit besonderer strategischer Bedeutung für die USA ist eine Ausnahme sinnvoll. Dabei steht die Bedeutung des Dokument weniger im Blickpunkt, als die Tatsache, dass hier ein Papier von grundsätzlichem Charakter vorliegt:
09STATE15113 verrät - trotz der offensichtlichen Unvollständigkeit - viel über das Denken derjenigen, die uns regieren. Und es bietet zudem eine Konkretisierung der Handelswege und -güter, die wohl auch der bundesrepublikanische Verteidigungsminister eines militärischen Einsatzes für würdig erachtet - natürlich mit Abweichungen, die die spezifisch deutschen Interessen widerspiegeln.
(Wie das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung gerade mitteilt, wird das neue Institut für sichere Rohstoffversorgung "Ressourcentechnologie-Institut" übrigens im sächsischen Freiberg entstehen...)
Der folgende Text entspricht buchstabengetreu dem Original. Zur besseren Lesbarkeit sind lediglich die regionalen und Länder-Abschnitte durch Absätze unterteilt und die Namen gefettet.
