Viewing cable 06PARIS5157, 61ST UNGA: FRANCE UNDECIDED ON HIGH-LEVEL

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.

SUBJECT: 61ST UNGA:  FRANCE UNDECIDED ON HIGH-LEVEL 
ATTENDANCE 
 
REF: STATE 112656 
 
Despite several inquiries (the most recent on July 31), the 
MFA and Presidency have not been able to provide the likely 
composition of France's 2006 UNGA delegation.  An MFA contact 
said on July 31 that the issue would not likely be decided 
before mid-August, at the earliest.  Past practice would 
suggest attendance by President Chirac in addition to FM 
Douste-Blazy.  (In September 2005, PM de Villepin was named 
as a replacement for President Chirac shortly before the UNGA 
as a result of the latter's hospitalization.)  We will report 
this year's high-level GOF attendees as soon as that 
information is made available to us.
