US embassy cable - 05PRAGUE1602

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.

DISPUTE DEMARCHE DELIVERED 
 
REF: STATE 201333 
 
 Econoff delivered reftel demarche to Ivan Dubovicky at the 
Ministry of Foreign Affairs Department of the Americas on 
November 10.  Dubovicky replied that the case was still 
working its way through the local legal system and cautioned 
against any attempts at political interference.  In fact, 
Dubovicky believes attempts at political interference could 
back-fire and would not/not be helpful to Mr. Weiss.  Econoff 
reiterated USG position per reftel that we expect any 
proceedings against Mr. Weiss be conducted in an open, fair 
and expeditious manner, in accordance with due process of 
law.  Dubovicky said he understood our concern and would 
continue to monitor the case.
