US embassy cable - 05VIENNA1703

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.  On May 20 Economic Unit Chief delivered reftel text to 
Florian Lorenz, Head of the MFA's Multilateral Scientific 
Cooperation and Space Affairs Unit.  Lorenz welcomed the USG 
proposals, noting the EU and USG normally coordinated closely 
on space mitigation issues.  Lorenz said the USG proposals, 
at first glance, appeared compatible with EU views on space 
debris mitigation.  He added that Austria would follow an EU 
consensus position, which Member States should reach by the 
end of May.
