Viewing cable 07PARIS3480, FRENCH RESPONSE TO UNSCR 1540 COMMITTEE DEMARCHE

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.

1.  (U) This cable is Sensitive but Unclassified - not for 
internet distribution. 
 
2.  (SBU) The Embassy delivered reftel demarche to both the 
Strategic Affairs/ Non-proliferation and the United Nations 
bureaus at the French MFA.  Our interlocuters were unfamiliar 
with the South African and Indonesian proposal to delete the 
text regarding posting the 1540 matrices online in the draft 
letters destined to be sent to States by the UN Security 
Council Committee established pursuant to UNSCR 1540. 
However, they appreciated our raising the issue and promised 
to take it under advisement.
