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.

TAGS: PHUM, AM, UNHRC-1
SUBJECT: MCHR 61: MFA CONFIRMS ARMENIANS WILL VOTE WITH US
ON GUANTANAMO
REF: A. YEREVAN 675
B. SECSTATE 69823
Classified By: Ambassador John M. Evans for reasons 1.4 (b,d).
(C) MFA International Organizations Department Chief Valery
Mkrtumyan told us April 20 that Armenia's mission in Geneva
had received instructions to vote with the USG on any
Guantanamo resolution presented at UNCHR. Mkrtumyan repeated
statements made by Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian to the
Ambassador earlier this week regarding the GOAM's support for
the USG on Cuba issues at CHR (ref a). He qualified the
statement of support, however, by expressing the GOAM's view
that the Guantanamo issue would not be raised at CHR and that
the USG was "overly concerned" about the issue. Mkrtumyan
suggested that the USG delegation in Geneva should share any
updates on the Cubans' plans to raise the issue with the GOAM
delegation.
