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.

Classified By: Ambassador Marguerita Ragsdale.
For reasons 1.4 (b) and (d)
1. (C) Minister of Cooperation in the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs, Mahamoud Ali Youssouf, confirmed today that
Djiboutian President Ismail Omar Guelleh will not/not travel
to Sudan at the end of the month to attend the axis meeting
of Ethiopia, Sudan and Yemen (see reftel A). Youssouf told
Ambassador Ragsdale that Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh
did talk to Guelleh via phone earlier this week and attempted
to convince him to attend the meeting, but that Guelleh
reiterated the standing Djiboutian position on the axis: It
has an anti-Eritrean political agenda and that meetings
promoting regional welfare should include all Horn of Africa
states or be mediated through IGAD (see reftel A). Djibouti
does not wish to embark on such a program, Youssouf said.
