US embassy cable - 05KINGSTON1809

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.

On July 21, Poloff delivered Ref A talking points by 
telephone and fax to Angella Brown, Deputy Director, 
International Organizations Department, Ministry of Foreign 
Affairs and Foreign Trade (MFAFT).  Referring to her last 
conversation on the subject with Poloff (Ref B), Brown 
offered that CARICOM states were developing a common position 
on UN Security Council reform, which was discussed at the 
July 3-6 heads of government (HOGs) meeting in St. Lucia. 
She said that many CARICOM states were inclined to support 
the G-4 resolution, contingent on certain amendments, as 
outlined in St. Lucia (Ref C).  Brown stressed that the 
development agenda is the GOJ's primary concern, and that 
they hoped to move quickly toward consensus on Security 
Council reform in order to focus on other aspects of UN 
reform.
