Viewing cable 05PARIS4527, FRANCE ON PEACEBUILDING COMMISSION: WE'RE VERY

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

1. Post shared the USG draft UNGA and UNSC resolutions with 
MFA IO UN reform action officer Nicolas Kassianides, who told 
us June 28 that the GoF was actively considering how to move 
forward on establishing the Peacebuilding Commission (PBC). 
 
2. Kassianides thanked us for the draft resolutions and said 
that the USG and GoF positions on the PBC were "very close." 
NOTE:  In Ambassador Tahir-Kheli's June 15 meetings with 
French officials, MFA Political Director Laboulaye expressed 
support for the establishment of the PBC, and IO 
A/S-equivalent Ripert agreed that the PBC's actions should be 
controlled by the UNSC (Ref C, para 3).  END NOTE.
