US embassy cable - 05PRAGUE1506

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: CZECHS ON UNGA ISRAEL RESOLUTIONS 
 
REF: A. STATE 188927 
 
     B. STATE 188933 
 
1. (SBU) The Czechs intend to co-sponsor the UNGA resolution 
on Holocaust Remembrance (ref A), according to Jan Kara, 
Director of the Czech MFA UN Department. 
 
2. (SBU) Kara indicated that the Czechs are still examining 
the USG points (ref B) and consulting with other states on 
the UNGA resolutions that are biased against Israel.  The 
Czechs will, at a minimum, abstain again this year on all 
three resolutions, but Kara did not rule out a "no" vote. 
Kara indicated that the final Czech position will be heavily 
influenced by debate among EU members, and noted that to date 
no EU member has seen the draft text of any of the three 
resolutions.
