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.

UNCLAS ABU DHABI 003423 SIPDIS STATE FOR NEA/ARP, NEA/RA, NEA/NGA, PRM/ANE, AND IO/UNP E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: EAID, PREL, PGOV, PHUM, IZ, TC SUBJECT: UAE CONTRIBUTIONS TO IRAQ TOTAL USD $50 MILLION REF: ABU DHABI 2877 1. (U) UAE Chief of Staff, and de facto Defense Minister, Shaykh Muhammad Bin Zayid Al-Nahyan (MbZ) told the Ambassador on July 20 that UAE assistance to Iraq already totals USD $50 million. This contribution includes Red Crescent medical and food supplies, hospital and medical equipment, continuing medical treatment for a number of Iraqis evacuated to the UAE in May, and water treatment plants. MbZ expects this figure to rise to USD $80 million by the end of the year as the Emiratis continue to provide the services they have promised. 2. (SBU) Comment: The overall UAEG assistance to Iraq is substantially greater than just Red Crescent contributions (reftel) -- it includes outlays from the Defense Ministry as well as ongoing humanitarian efforts. The UAEG's commitment to Iraqi reconstruction has been steadfast, and as MbZ's statement indicates, will continue to be resolute. End comment. Wahba
