US embassy cable - 05SANSALVADOR2220

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.

Charge of Multilateral Affairs Mario Rivera on June 9. 
Rivera appreciated the up-to-date information and stated that 
El Salvador understood the need and respected the right of 
the U.S. to detain individuals at Guantanamo Bay and had 
confidence that the the U.S. Government would carry-out the 
detentions according to international law and with respect to 
human rights.  Per Rivera's suggestion, Poloff also delivered
