US embassy cable - 05PARIS5194

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.

(C) We shared the Iraqi draft UNSCR on terrorist attacks in 
Iraq (reftel) with MFA action officer for UN Middle East 
issues Alice Guitton at OOB July 27, and urged French 
support.  Guitton later confirmed to us that instructions had 
been sent to the French UN mission in New York to support the 
text, with minor modifications, such as adding a reference to 
UNSCR 1546 to the first preambular paragraph.  She reiterated 
that the resolution was wholly consistent with French 
condemnations of terrorism in Iraq.
