US embassy cable - 00THEHAGUE1952

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Classified by A/Polcouns Eric Lundberg, Reasons 1.5 b/d 
 
 
1.(C) The Netherlands is likely to vote for a renewal of 
UNOMIG and its current size and mandate, according to MFA 
sources.  South Caucasus desk officer Taco Stoppels told 
Polmiloff on June 21 that the Dutch were awaiting the 
Secretary General's report before making a decision on 
 
SIPDIS 
whether to support.  While the Dutch are concerned by rising 
violence in Abkhazia -- in particular the recent hostage 
taking of UN and international assistance workers -- UNOMIG 
appears to remain a useful tool for bringing about a peaceful 
resolution. 
 
 
2.(C) The Dutch are unlikely to contribute manpower to 
UNOMIG.  Currently, the Dutch give higher priority to placing 
a Dutch observer with the OSCE border monitoring operation 
along the Georgian border with Chechnya.
