As reports of US diplomats and intel officials being ill from the mysterious Havana Syndrome increase, frustration is rising among rank-and-file staffers and diplomats over what multiple officials say has been a tepid response by the State Department.
Of particular concern is a lack of information from leadership, including what some say has been a hands-off approach from Secretary of State Tony Blinken who has yet to meet with any of the State Department victims despite saying he would prioritize the incidents.
Frustrated victims In addition to the US diplomats who are concerned about defending against future threats, some victims have also expressed frustration with how the State Department has treated them throughout the process. One victim of a series of incidents that took place in 2018 in Guangzhou, China, has claimed that the State Department retaliated against him for speaking up about his persistent symptoms.
