US embassy cable - 05MADRID2164

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.

the Embassy of the Dominican Republic in Spain on June 6 (the

  The government of the Dominican Republic advises that it 
will present its candidate for reelection to the Executive

scheduled for November 25 in Dakar, Senegal.  The Dominican 
embassy hopes that the diplomatic missions in Spain will give 
consideration to its candidate. 
 
End translation. 
 
3. Post requests Department guidance on the appropriate 
response, if any is desired, to this note.  (Comment: Post 
notes that the United States is not a member of the World 
Tourism Organization, although Puerto Rico is an Associate 
Member.  End Comment).
