US embassy cable - 04NEWDELHI7151

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.

In the absence of MEA's senior-level UN experts, who are in 
New York, PolCouns delivered our follow-up demarche on 
Belarus' planned move for no-action on the US/EU sponsored 
resolution on the human rights situation in Belarus and the 
Belarus-sponsored resolution critical of the US electoral 
system to Joint Secretary (Americas) S. Jaishankar.  Poloff 
followed up on November 9 with MEA Deputy Secretary (UN 
Economic and Social) Gopal Baglay, who responded that his 
office as well as the Indian Permanent Mission in New York 
are considering our request.  He added that the Indian 
delegation in New York will take a final decision.  Baglay 
reminded Poloff, however, that the GOI "generally does not 
favor country-specific resolutions on human rights."
