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.

)
1. (C) Embassy legal officer delivered reftel demarches to
Pieter Ramaer, Head of the Political and Judicial Division
within the MFA's UN and IFI Department. Ramaer stated the
Dutch were one of the top donors of the Special Court for
Sierra Leone and that they were not considering making any
additional contributions. With respect to other European
countries, Ramaer stated that the Dutch had demarched several
countries about four months ago with little success. Although
he noted the US preference for voluntary contributions,
Ramaer stated that the Dutch view assessed contributions as
the only possible way to acquire the requisite funding needed
by the Court. The Dutch stance was also included in a recent
position paper circulated by the Court's management
committee.
