US embassy cable - 05VIENNA963

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.

1.  Post conveyed reftel demarche on the independent 
external evaluation of the FAO to Walter Lichem, Head of 
the international organizations office in the FMA and to 
Hedwig Woegerbauer, GoA official responsible for FAO 
issues in the Ministry of Agriculture. 
 
2.  In a follow-up, Lichem told us that the GoA supports 
the FAO's external evaluation, but had no information

contribution.  Lichem noted that, as the lead ministry on 
FAO issues, the MoA will ultimately decide if the GoA 
will contribute or not.
