US embassy cable - 05SANTODOMINGO4498

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.

"(Complimentary opening), in view of the traditional ties of 
cooperation between both our countries, the Dominican

"International Partnership on Avian and Pandemic Influenza: 
Statenent of Core Principles," which will be introduced in
