Viewing cable 06LAPAZ2494, BOLIVIA: NOT TERRIBLY HELPFUL ON THE NAM

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

REF: SECSTATE 145242 
 
(SBU) Poloff delivered reftel demarche to First Secretary 
Eduardo Gallardo of the Office of Multilateral Relations in 
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs September 20.  Gallardo noted 
our concerns, especially regarding our desire for the GOB to 
speak with the Guatemalan delegation about its UN Security 
Council candidacy.  Gallardo expressed GOB solidarity with 
the U.S. position that lethal attacks which target civilians 
to intimidate a population or compel government action cannot 
be excused or justified, but said the GOB would have a 
difficult time at the NAM building consensus on that issue. 
Gallardo said the GOB would consider our request for more 
balanced language on Israel, but again noted that consensus 
would be difficult on such a "complex" topic.
