United States Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell announced on Tuesday that the American mission in Berlin has saved U.S. taxpayers approximately $20 million over the last two fiscal years.

“I believe strongly that American taxpayers expect efficiency and frugality from overseas missions,” Grenell wrote in a press release. “I am happy to report that after coming $6 million under budget for [the fiscal year 2018], Mission Germany came $14 million under budget in [the fiscal year 2019].”

The article goes on to state the following:

“Additionally, we zeroed-out all growth requests for the most recent Mission Resource Review, committing to a static budget through 2021,” the statement continued. “Through continuous analysis of our operations and goals, we have been able to meet emerging requirements through efficiencies and reprogramming existing resources as needed.”

The Washington Free Beacon reported that Grenell achieved the savings by “streamlining operations and cutting down on burdensome bureaucracy.”
