US embassy cable - 05THEHAGUE3168

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. (C) The Netherlands lacks the capacity to provide aircraft 
to support the UNAMI mission.  Willemijn Kallenberg (Senior 
Policy Advisor, North Africa and Middle East Department, MFA) 
told Poloff November 25 that the Dutch received last week at 
the UN a request similar to reftel points.  Willemijn said 
the Netherlands informed the UN Department of Peacekeeping 
Operations of its inability to provide aircraft in support of 
UNAMI.
