US embassy cable - 04GUATEMALA1757

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.

PolOff delivered Ref A talking points to MFA Multilateral 
Affairs Director Sylvia Corado on July 15.  Corado reiterated 
Guatemala's position in opposition to the Cuban Human Rights 
Resolution, strongly supporting our views (Ref B).  She also 
agreed to discuss with the MFA Vice-Ministers the possibility 
of informing Cuba of the GOG decision and attempting to 
persuade Cuba to withdraw the resolution before the informal 
New York July 16 meeting.
