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.

CLAIM; NO IMMEDIATE OFFICIAL REACTION
REF: A. STATE 171121
B. OLSEN/MAKENS/SMITH E-MAIL 9/27 AND 9/30
Classified By: POLITICAL COUNSELOR FRANCISCO PALMIERI; REASONS 1.5 (B)
AND (D).
1. (U) PolOffs delivered ref A nonpaper on the Honduran
straight baseline claim to MFA Director General of Foreign
Policy Mario Fortin September 25. There was no immediate
official reaction from the MFA.
2. (C) Informally, Fortin was not surprised to receive these
U.S. views. He almost, but not quite, sheepishly
acknowledged the expansive nature of the Honduran claim. He
said that he would pass the nonpaper on to the maritime
borders unit of the MFA. He queried whether or not the two
sides would meet again in Washington or Tegucigalpa to
discuss the issue.
