US embassy cable - 04MAPUTO1625

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.

US/MOZAMBIQUE BILATERAL INVESTMENT TREATY 
 
1. On December 14, Luis Sitoi, advisor to the Minister of 
Industry and Commerce, informed the Embassy that the 
Mozambican Council of Ministers ratified the U.S.-Mozambique 
Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) during the week of Dec 6. 
The text of the BIT has been sent for publication in 
Mozambique's "Boletim de Repulica" (equivalent to our Federal 
Register). 
 
2. Post awaits a note verbale formally announcing the GRM's 
ratification of the BIT. When we receive the note, we will 
obtain and send to the Department the text of the GRM 
instrument of ratification for L/T review. Embassy also will 
present the GRM with U.S. proposed language for the exchange 
of ratifying instruments.
