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) Pursuant to refs A and B, Embassy has continued to follow
up with MFA Asylum and Migration Division regarding cases in
which Ashraf residents claim ties to the Netherlands. As per
refs C and D, Asylum and Migration Division Regional
Coordinator for Asia Marja van der Lynden requested on
October 5 copies of any available identification and/or
residency documents that could assist the Dutch in their
investigation of the cases, pointing out that such documents
could clarify spelling differences and help move cases along
absent a Dutch delegation to Ashraf. Van der Lynden
confirmed October 28 that the MFA and MOJ have not yet
reached agreement on a strategy for handling the cases, are
still awaiting a response from the U.S. regarding
documentation, and continue to consider the security
situation in Baghdad prohibitive of sending a delegation at
this time. Please advise.
