Viewing cable 10MBABANE73, GOLDSTONE DEMARCHE: NO IMMEDIATE RESPONSE

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.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at theparagraph symbol). Please mark messages for social networking services like Twitter with the hash tags #cablegate and a hash containing the reference ID e.g. #10MBABANE73.

SUBJECT: GOLDSTONE DEMARCHE: NO IMMEDIATE RESPONSE 
 
REF: STATE 15722 
 
1.  Ambassador Irving and PolOff met with Ministry of Foreign 
Affairs and International Cooperation Acting Legal Advisor 
Vulindlela Kunene, in the unavailability of more senior officers, to 
deliver points per reftel on February 24.  Mr. Kunene offered no 
immediate substantive response regarding Swaziland's position on the 
new Palestinian Observer Mission draft General Assembly resolution, 
and indicated he would speak with the Foreign Minister on the issue 
later that day. 
 
2.  Post post has found that, as with many international 
organization issues, the most successful tactic has been to directly 
lobby the Swazi UN Permanent Representative, who has a broad mandate 
and apparently rarely consults with headquarters.
