Sports are a peaceful tool for international affairs that the United States can use to foster relations throughout the world. The US State Department has used sports to bridge opposing governments on the long road to formal diplomatic relations. The US State Department has recently put new emphasis into the program with significant results. Along the same lines, the US military has had athletic relations with various countries through the International Military Sports Council. The military, under direction of the US State Department have used sports to enhance relationships throughout the world.
