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 O N F I D E N T I A L BRATISLAVA 000676 SIPDIS E.O. 12958: DECL: 07/15/2014 TAGS: PREL, IS, PL, LO, UNGA, ICJ SUBJECT: ICJ ADVISORY OPINION: SLOVAKIA UNDECIDED REF: SECSTATE 152014 Classified By: AMB Ronald Weiser. Reasons: 1.5 (b & d). 1. (C) On June 15, Poloff delivered reftel talking points to Oskana Tomova, Director of the UN Office at the Slovak MFA. Tomova stated that Slovakia supports the U.S. position of closely following the roadmap, but was still deliberating their final position. She added that the issue must be considered in a broader context and was aware of problems that can result from ICJ decisions, based on Slovakia's experience with the Nagymaros-Gabcikovo dam. 2. (C) Even though a lobby of Islamic nations is pushing for an immediate decision in the UNGA, Tomova believes that discussion will be postponed. The EU had several meetings, but has not reached a consensus. Slovakia is currently drafting preliminary statements to further clarify the GOS position, which should be released in the next few days. We will keep the Department informed of Slovakia's likely vote. WEISER NNNN
