Viewing cable 03GUATEMALA2880, GUATEMALA ON MIDDLE EAST RESOLUTIONS AT THE UNGA

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.

Per ref A instructions, the Ambassador spoke with Foreign 
Minister Edgar Gutierrez on November 10.  Gutierrez, who was 
enjoying a local holiday in the wake of national elections 
here yesterday, was unaware of the details of our proposals 
but promised he would not wait until tomorrow to contact his 
staff.  The text of Secretary Powell's letter to Gutierrez on 
this topic (ref B) was delivered via diplomatic note to the 
Foreign Ministry on Friday, November 7.  PolOff had earlier 
discussed ref C points with acting Director for Multilateral 
Affairs, Luis Carranza, on November 6.  That discussion led 
us to believe that Guatemala was open to the idea of 
consolidating some of the resolutions and possibly to at 
least abstain on others.
