US embassy cable - 05VIENNA2403

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 130530 
 
1.  (SBU) On July 15, Acting Econ-Pol Counselor delivered 
reftel talking points and draft resolutions to Peter Huber in 
the MFA's International Organizations Division.  Huber said 
the GoA supported the creation of a UN Peacebuilding 
Commission along the lines of the USG proposal.  The EU also 
wanted to establish the commission by the end of 2005.  Huber 
noted that the USG resolutions were well written and should 
form the basis for moving the initiative forward.  Huber 
pointed out that such a commission would provide an ideal 
forum for the various governments -- P-5, and donor and 
contributor nations -- to focus on peacebuilding in a 
particular country.  The European Commission, in Huber's 
opinion, should receive a seat in the Core Group, as it is an 
important donor in many post-conflict situations.
