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 Ambassador Marcelle M. Wahba for reasons 1.5 (B) and (D). 2. (S) The Ambassador followed-up on reftel demarche with MFA Minstate Shaykh Hamdan bin Zayid Al-Nahyan on April 6 (other topics covered septel). Hamdan indicated that, in principle, the UAE would be interested in participating in the Core Group process, given the Emiratis' expertise in delivering humanitarian and reconstruction assistance and its contributions to the coalition. Shaykh Hamdan would like more information about how the Core Group expects to function and its composition. He noted that the UAE would expect a role for the Iraqis themselves. While the UAE would channel private, unofficial (i.e. Red Crescent) humanitarian assistance purely on a bilateral basis, Hamdan said the UAEG would be available to offer advice, based on the Emiratis' knowledge of Iraq, and to coordinate on a multilateral basis for official, government-funded reconstruction efforts. He carefully noted that we should not expect the UAEG to make a major financial donation, but they would certainly be a participant in the multilateral effort. WAHBA
