Viewing cable 07TALLINN340, ESTONIA THINKS RUSSIAN DRAFT OSCE CHARTER A BAD

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. #07TALLINN340.

IDEA 
 
Ref: STATE 69698 
 
(SBU) On May 21, we delivered reftel points to Arti 
Hilpus, MFA Director for Security and Arms Control, and 
discussed the proposed Russian draft of an OSCE 
"charter."  Hilpus said Estonia's position is similar to 
the USG?s position and agrees that the Russian proposal 
would undermine fundamental OSCE commitments on human 
rights.  Estonia is currently participating in the EU 
Coordinating Group in order to have a common European 
position on Russia's proposal.  While many other EU 
member states have similar positions to Estonia, Hilpus 
was unable to predict what the final EU position will 
be.
