US embassy cable - 05ROME1374

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.

SUBJECT: ITALY TO PROVIDE FIVE MILLION EURO TO UN FOR 
AFGHAN ELECTION AND PARLIAMENT SUPPORT 
 
REF: STATE 061560 
 
(U)  The Italian Government has approved five million Euro in 
response to the UN appeal for Afghanistan.  Four million Euro 
are designated for election support, and an additional one 
million Euro to help establish Afghanistan's new Parliament. 
Italy on April 3 requested a "letter of acceptance" from the 
UN in order to complete processing and transfer the funds. 
Upon receipt of the UN letter, the MFA Development Office for 
Afghanistan said it might take an additional week or two for 
bank processing.  Essentially, however, our MFA contacts told 
us, "the ball is in the UN's court" to receive the funds.
