US embassy cable - 05THEHAGUE3136

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. Polmiloff discussed reftel points November 21 with Senior 
Policy Advisor Arjen van den Berg (Security Policy 
Department, MFA).  Van den Berg was aware of U.S. 
reservations regarding the draft narrative text, and planned 
to discuss reftel points with the Dutch mission to the OSCE. 
He added that the "promising" Slovene proposal offers a real 
chance to resolve the scales impasse, and that the Dutch see 
"no problem" with the current draft narrative text.
