US embassy cable - 04MADRID2692

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.

(C) We spoke with both Juan Manuel Cabrera, Director of the 
MFA's Office of Human Rights, and to Enrique Mora, Director 
of the MFA's Office of EU Foreign Policy and Common Security, 
regarding reftel.  Both agreed with our position that the 
Cuban resolution was merely an attempt to politically target 
coalition countries and that they viewed the resolution as a 
reaction to the condemnations Cuba has received in the Human 
Rights Commission.  Mora stated that Spain would work to 
oppose the resolution.
