US embassy cable - 05VIENNA3443

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.

1.  (SBU) Charge presented ref (a) points on October 24 to 
Austrian Foreign Ministry Secretary General Johannes Kyrle, 
who is currently acting deputy Foreign Minister.  Charge 
expressed appreciation for Austria's deployment of a military 
unit of 60 troops with water purification equipment to the 
disaster region, but pointed to the specific need for 
winterized tents and the failure to reach the UN flash appeal 
targets.  Kyrle said he would coordinate with other elements 
of the Austrian government.  He said it was important that 
the Austrian government have an "official request" upon which 
to base an offer of assistance, and said he would use the 
current demarche in that capacity.
