US embassy cable - 04THEHAGUE1070

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) MFA UN Political and Judicial Chief, Pieter Ramaer, 
confirmed that the GoNL does not support the unofficial 
Palestinian General Assembly resolution.  Ramaer stated EU 
missions met in New York yesterday to discuss the draft.  EU 
opinion was divided, and no consensus was reached.  The Dutch 
are discussing internal EU strategy with the UK, which Ramaer 
stated also opposes the draft.  Noting that reftel points 
were primarily political, Ramaer reported that the GoNL would 
prefer to find a legal basis to oppose the draft resolution.
