Regional
Security Office Mission:
The Regional Security
Office (RSO) is dedicated to providing a safe environment
to conduct foreign policy. The Regional Security Officer
is the advisor to Ambassador Martin J. Silverstein on all
security and law enforcement issues affecting relations
between the United States and the Oriental Republic of Uruguay.
The RSO is responsible
for the safety of all Uruguayan and American employees at
the Embassy and develops and coordinates all elements of
the security program. RSO responsibilities range from developing
contingency plans, to supervising guards, to improving physical
