US Ambassador Thomas meets VP Binay As I was watching the video clip showing the courtesy call of the US Ambassador Harry Thomas to VP Binay on television, I wonder if this is customary?

Along with countries like Cuba, Iran, Myanmar, North Korea, Sudan , Syria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the Philippines are among the 52 countries on the US Watchlist.
