US embassy cable - 04DUBLIN1347

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.

1.  On September 13, Post delivered reftel talking points to 
Tony Joyce, Senior Trade Negotiator in the Department of 
Enterprise, Trade, and Employment.  Joyce noted that, in an 
Article 133 Committee meeting on September 10, the Commission 
had discussed with Member States its intention to enter into 
constructive discussions with USTR on large commercial 
aircraft (LCA) subsidies.  Ireland supported the Commission 
in that endeavor, said Joyce.  He explained that the GOI 
viewed this issue "from the sidelines," since Ireland does 
not provide subsidies to Airbus.  He added that while the 
Commission expressed hope for a positive outcome on the 
issue, it anticipated difficult discussions with USTR.
