US embassy cable - 04KUWAIT2523

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.

Action Plan to Ministry of Foreign Affairs Acting

Al-Babtain expressed surprise that the USG deals with all 
nations directly on this issue and recommended that Anti-TIP 
efforts be carried out through the auspices of the United 
Nations.  He explained that UN involvement would give the 
proposals more value and legal weight.  We replied that TIP 
objectives were pursued both multilaterally and bilaterally.
