A nice articles by Michael Phillips of the Wall Street Journal on early tensions between State Department and the MCC. My sense is that many of these early tensions in terms of communicating with countries have been worked through. But I also believe the MCC is going to have to fight hard to keep country selection and suspension based on its performance indicators rather than geopolitical interests.
