Viewing cable 06SANJOSE2798, COSTA RICA: UNGA VOTE ON DECEMBER 19

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.

REF: A. STATE 199234 
 
     ΒΆB. USUN NEW YORK 2261 
 
On December 18, poloff discussed ref A talking points with 
Viviana Tinoco of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs UN Area 
Office.  During Third Committee voting in November, Costa 
Rica rejected "no action" motions against country-specific 
human rights resolutions, but later abstained during the 
actual votes on all country-specific human rights 
resolutions (ref B).  This was a reversal from their action 
in 2005, when they voted in favor of country-specific 
resolutions against Iran and Uzbekistan.  The GOCR also 
abstained on the retaliatory motions targeted at the U.S. 
and Canada.  Tinoco said she was unaware of any plans to 
change Costa Rica's abstention votes on country-specific 
resolutions when the general assembly meets to approve 
Third Committee resolutions and decisions this week.
