US embassy cable - 05VIENNA1917

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.

REF: STATE 106113 
 
1.  (SBU) Post conveyed reftel points to the GoA's COTRA 
delegation in Brussels and followed up June 8 with Gabriela 
Habermayer, Austria's 133 Committee representative. 
Habermayer agreed that U.S.-EU cooperation on IPR, especially 
in the developing world, was an area of positive 
collaboration that transcended any single dispute, i.e., the 
"Irish music" case.  Habermayer said the GoA supported 
reference to IPR issues at the summit, either in a separate 
declaration or as part of the initiative paper.  On energy 
efficiency and the economic initiative, Habermayer said the 
GoA was open to USG ideas, but would support a Member State 
consensus.  Habermayer agreed the Summit should accentuate 
the positive aspects of U.S.-EU economic relations.  In this 
context, Habermayer stated the GoA does not support 
referencing trade disputes in summit documents.
