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.

(U) Classified by DCM Richard Albright for reasons 1.5 (b) and (d). 2. (C) Econchief delivered reftel demarche on the benefits of joining a multilateral open skies aviation regime on 2/22 to UAE Ministry of Communications Assistant Undersecretary for Civil Aviation Mohamed Yahya Al-Suweidi. Al-Suweidi responded, "at first glance, it is not a bad idea," but said he must study further the information provided before taking a position. (Comment: The UAEG has signed, or is in the process of signing, bilateral open skies agreements with nearly every country listed in reftel as a party to the multilateral regime, which may limit the perception of the benefits of joining. End comment.) 3. (C) Al-Suweidi is aware that the multilateral open skies regime may be a topic at the next U.S.-GCC Economic Dialogue, and said he will be prepared to discuss it with others in the GCC beforehand.
