To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the { law name }, I hereby request the following records:
any "statement of principles" on Syria written or co-authored by then-acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan in December 2018 or January 2019.
According to former National Security John Bolton's upcoming book, In the Room Where It Happened, Shanahan and several other cabinet officials had "agreed to draft a one-page 'statement of principles' on Syria to avoid misunderstandings, which Defense thought was particularly important," before meeting with Turkish officials in January 2019.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
I request that I be properly classified as a news media requester. I am a national security reporter for the National Interest, and I am requesting this information in that editorial capacity.
The National Interest is widely recognized for its reporting, publishing regular features on issues of public interest and importance. In addition, I have covered areas related to this request, and plan to use my editorial skills to analyze and produce original reporting work for millions of monthly readers at NationalInterest.org.
If you have any questions about my media status, please contact me.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.
I look forward to receiving your response to this request within { days }.
Sincerely,
Matthew Petti
