In this study, the writer intends to analyze apologizing strategies used in Barack Obama’s speech at Strasbourg Town Hall. This study is conducted to find out (1) the types of apologizing strategies (direct and indirect) performed in Barack Obama’s speech, and (2) the apologizing strategies performed in Barack Obama’s speech.This study is qualitative approach with document analysis since the data consists largely of words. The data are the utterances which contain apology in Barack Obama’s speech at Strasbourg Town Hall. From the data, the writer tried to identify the apologizing strategies by using Olshtain and Cohen’s apologizing strategy (1983).In this study the writer found 8 strategies of apology in the 12 excerpts. The strategies are (a) IFID with exclamations, (b) IFID followed by humor downgrading, (c) IFID for politeness, (d) taking on responsibility followed bysharing guilt, (e) admission followed by blaming, (f) implicit apology followed by regret, (g) explanation or account, and (h) offer of repair. According to theanalysis, the writer finds IFID with exclamations by 1 datum, IFID followed by humor downgrading by 1 datum, IFID for politeness by 1 datum, taking on responsibility followed by sharing guilt by 4 data, admission followed by blaming by 1 datum, implicit apology followed by regret by 1 datum, explanation or account by 1 datum, and offer of repair by 2 data. The mostly used strategy is taking on responsibility followed by sharing guilt that occurred 4 times. This happens because the speech indicated that every nation bears responsibility for problems in the world such as climate change, terrorism, drug trafficking, poverty, and the proliferation of nuclear weapons. This strategy was used to minimize the degree of offense that United States is partly responsible.This study hopefully can provide appropriate reference for further researcher to conduct the research in apologizing act. It is recommended that the next researchers examine apology strategy used in diplomatic context. Hopefully, the results of this study can be used as the starting point to analyze apology strategies more deeply. Finally, the future researcher may conduct a research on languages other than English.
