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.

UNCLAS ABU DHABI 004334 SIPDIS STATE FOR NEA/PI, EU/RA, AND NEA/ARPI E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: KMPI, PREL, ECON, PGOV, TC SUBJECT: UAE: US-EU DIALOGUE ON MIDDLE EAST REFORM REF: STATE 235816 1. The U.S. and EU embassies in Abu Dhabi have tentatively scheduled December 8 for an inaugural dialogue on reform. Per reftel, the Embassy had proposed hosting an inaugural U.S.-EU dialogue on reform during the last week of November, but the Dutch Embassy (EU president) told us that EU missions were uncomfortable with the idea of attending a dialogue with the U.S. without prior instructions from their respective capitals. The EU ambassadors met for two hours on November 30 before reaching a consensus on holding a dialogue with the U.S. &There were 25 people at the table, and there were so many opinions,8 our Dutch Embassy contact said. In the end, he said, the EU ambassadors agreed that the dialogue would be a helpful vehicle for exchanging views and ideas. 2. Ambassador and MEPI Coordinator had met with EU ambassadors on September 28 at which time the EU ambassadors inquired about MEPI and BMENA. Earlier, on September 15, the Dutch ambassador and DCM called on Ambassador at which time MEPI Coordinator provided basic MEPI and BMENA information. The Dutch gave us the &EU Strategic Partnership with the Mediterranean and the Middle East (Euromed)8 final report from June 23, and a report by EU ambassadors in Abu Dhabi summarizing their August 9 discussion on the possible implementation of the EU Strategic Partnership in the UAE. In their report, the EU ambassadors concluded that while there are ways to promote reform in the UAE, the EU embassies lack the financial means or personnel to implement the different activities under the Euromed. The report recommended opening an EC delegation office in Abu Dhabi to better coordinate the EU embassies, efforts. SISON
