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.

SUBJECT: POLISH STATEMENT WELCOMES IRAQI DRAFT CONSTITUTION
REF: A. WARSAW 3228
B. STATE 158420
1. (SBU) Following our approach (Ref B), the Polish MFA late
August 29 released a public statement in support of Iraq's
draft constitution. Unofficial embassy translation of the
original Polish-language text follows.
2. (U) Begin text of Polish MFA statement.
"Poland welcomes the completion of work on Iraq,s draft
constitution. The completion of this document should be
recognized as an important achievement of the entire Iraqi
nation and as evidence of the strengthening of democracy in
that country. Another important point on the calendar for
the political process in Iraq has been carried out, in
accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 1546.
Agreement on the draft constitution is testament to the will
to reach agreement among the main political forces in that
country, irrespective of the objections raised by the Sunni
community.
"We hope that the adoption of the constitution in a
nation-wide referendum will be another step in the process of
reconstructing Iraqi statehood and taking over responsibility
for the state by the Iraqis themselves, who make sovereign
decisions on their matters. By taking a direct part in
international efforts for the stabilization and
reconstruction of Iraq, Poland will continue to support the
Iraqi government and nation in their effort to build a
democratic and united state. We will also take actions to
develop and strengthen ties and partnership cooperation
between our two countries in all fields. Arrangements made
during the last visit of the Polish Prime Minister to Iraq
were an expression of this approach."
3. End text of statement.
