Some government services use twitter to publish news or information. I expect they will be in Threads too. If I can access them through federation then it's a huge win for the Fediverse.
Even better if they just create their own government instance and post them there, then others can federate or just consume as desired. I really don't like the idea of the government making you sign up or interact with some for profit business's infrastructure to see communications from them.
It's better if they did that, but they are not doing that.
EU has mastodon and other social media for example: https://european-union.europa.eu/contact-eu/social-media-channels_en#/search?page=0&networks=mastodon
