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.

UNCLAS BRATISLAVA 000898 SIPDIS DEPT FOR EB/CIP, EUR/ERA COMMERCE FOR ITA AND NTIA E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: ECPS, ETRD, ECON, EINT, ETTC, LO SUBJECT: SLOVAKIA SUPPORTS CURRENT INTERNET GOVERNANCE STRUCTURES REF: STATE 196384 (SBU) Director of the Department of Information Society at the Ministry of Transport, Posts and Telecommunications Tibor Papp told Econoff that Slovakia seeks to preserve the status quo on Internet governance. He stressed that the open nature of the Internet must be maintained, and since it is not under any threat there is no reason to change the current structure. Papp opined that the "New Cooperation Model" was developed by "EU bureaucrats" who were looking for an issue to work on, but he did not think the proposal had deep support among member countries. Although Slovakia will continue to push against any efforts to create new structures to govern the Internet, Papp noted that Slovakia will ultimately have to follow the EC line on this issue. Papp, who will represent Slovakia at the WSIS in Tunis, does not expect the EU's proposal to go anywhere at the summit. VALLEE NNNN
