Press Release
Carnegie Announces Sale of Foreign Policy Magazine to The Washington Post Company
The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace is pleased to announce the sale of its award-winning magazine, Foreign Policy, to The Washington Post Company.
Published on Oct 3, 2008
WASHINGTON, Sept 29—The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace is pleased to announce the sale of its award-winning magazine, Foreign Policy, to The Washington Post Company.
Announcing the move, Jessica T. Mathews, president of the Endowment said:
“Since its founding in 1910 the Carnegie Endowment has made a tradition of recognizing when its initiatives reach a point where they need new circumstances to continue to grow. A good example is the departure of the Endowment’s migration program in 2001. The program had grown so large that it needed to stand on its own. As the independent Migration Policy Institute (MPI), it has since become an internationally known success.
The same has become true of Foreign Policy magazine. Ten years ago we set out to turn a good professional journal into a new kind of magazine for a much wider circle of readers. Under Moises Naím’s inspired direction, we have done so with numerous awards for editorial excellence, an expanding readership and many international editions. Now Foreign Policy, too, needs a wider horizon that only a commercial publisher can provide.
“We are extremely proud that the magazine’s achievements and great future potential have been recognized by The Washington Post Company. In terms of brand, editorial values and business strengths it is simply impossible to imagine a better home for Foreign Policy.”
Moises Naím, Foreign Policy’s editor-in-chief said:
“FP would have not grown into the successful operation it is today without the unwavering support of the Carnegie Endowment. It is indeed bittersweet to part with such a generous and prestigious organization. But with the backing of The Washington Post Company, FP will be even better placed to deliver and grow the unique coverage and analysis of the ideas and issues shaping our world for which the magazine has become well known".

India and the United States are close to concluding a Reciprocal Defense Procurement Agreement (RDPA) that will allow firms from the two countries to sell to each other’s defense establishments more easily. While this may not remedy the specific grievances both sides may have regarding larger bilateral issues, an RDPA could restore some momentum, following the trade deal announcement.
