US embassy cable - 05VIENNA2324

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.  (U) EconPolCouns delivered ref (a) demarche on July 7 to 
Wolfgang Lapuh, acting head of the Austrian Foreign 
Ministry's Middle East and Africa division. 
 
2.  (SBU) Lapuh said Austria had been prepared to provide 
training on constitutional issues to Iraqis, and had offered 
this to the Iraqi government (see ref d).  However, per ref 
(a), this was no longer a point of focus.  This was the 
extent of the assistance in the constitutional field that 
Austria had envisaged, Lapuh said.  However, Austria had 
provided assistance in other fields, including training for 
Iraqi diplomats and police training.
