US embassy cable - 04GUATEMALA1668

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.

SUBJECT: GOG RESPONSE ON TRANSPARENCY CLAUSE DEMARCHE 
 
REF: SECSTATE 146518 
 
 PolOff delivered reftel points to MFA Multilateral Affairs 
Director Sylvia Corado on July 6.  According to Corado, both 
Vice-Minister Marta Altolaguirre and Vice-Minister Carlos 
Ramiro Martinez will attend the July 8-9 Meeting of the 
States Parties to the Inter-American Convention Against 
Corruption in Managua.  Charge also attempted to contact 
Vice-Minister Jorge Skinner-Klee to discuss reftel points, 
but the Vice-Minister is currently out of the country. 
PolOff consulted several times with Corado on July 7, but the 
MFA has not made an official decision regarding their 
position on the inclusion of a transparency clause in the 
text of the Declaration of Managua.  However, Corado 
unofficially believes that the GOG will be able to support 
the clause's inclusion.  Corado will contact PolOff when the 
MFA has determined their position.
