US embassy cable - 04MADRID4486

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)  ESTHOFF made Ref A points November 24 to Science 
Ministry Technology Policy Director General Carlos Alejaldre 
Losilla, underscoring U.S. commitment to the six-party ITER 
framework and urging Spain to argue within EU deliberations 
in favor of the six-party framework and against any 
unilateral action.  Alejaldre, who will lead the Spanish 
delegation during the ITER discussions at the November 25-6 
Brussels meeting of the EU Competitiveness Council, told 
ESTHOFF that his views had not changed since he had met with 
ESTHOFF November 12 to discuss ITER and other matters (see 
Ref B).  Alejaldre reiterated that Spain will argue 
strenuously within the EU to maintain the six-party 
framework.  He underscored, however, that Spain would of 
course support whatever decision emerges from the November 
25-6 meetings.
