US embassy cable - 05KINGSTON1803

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: SECSTATE 127261 
 
On July 22, Poloff delivered reftel talking points by 
telephone and fax to Angella Brown, Deputy Director, 
International Organizations Department, Ministry of Foreign 
Affairs and Foreign Trade (MFAFT).  Brown offered that she 
was aware of the Fourteenth International Terrorism 
Convention, and that she has followed the drafting and debate 
of the resolution in the Sixth Committee.  Brown pointed out 
that a stumbling block for the CCIT is the consensual 
agreement on an international definition of terrorism.  Brown 
said that she is aware that UN SYG Annan has proposed a 
consensual definintion of the term, but that she has not yet 
seen it.  She did not identify the GOJ position on the 
matter.  Post will report any further substantive details 
should they develop.
