US embassy cable - 05DUBLIN1088

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 August 31, emboff delivered reftel talking points to 
Department of Foreign Affairs Americas Section Third 
Secretary Margaret Stanley.  Stanley said that Ireland will 
 
SIPDIS 
not provide bilateral assistance to help Haiti meets its 
first-half FY06 financing gap, but instead, would funnel any 
assistance through the EU.  She said that Haiti is a high 
priority for the EU and that the UK's EU presidency will host 
a development meeting on September 6, in which this issue is 
likely to be raised.  She has not seen an agenda for this 
meeting, but if the Haitian financing gap is discussed, as it 
was in June, and Haiti is now deemed as compliant with the 
Cotonou Agreement (as she suspects it will be), decisions are 
likely to be taken to allocate funds already set aside by EU 
Member States, including by Ireland.
