Viewing cable 08RABAT145, MOROCCO WILL STUDY U.S./EC TAFT GOODS PROPOSAL

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. #08RABAT145.

SUBJECT: MOROCCO WILL STUDY U.S./EC TAFT GOODS PROPOSAL 
 
REF: SECSTATE 12905 
 
ΒΆ1. (SBU) Econ Counselor delivered reftel points jointly with 
the EU's Economic Counselor in Morocco Jerome Cassier  in a 
February 15 meeting with Mohammed Benjelloun, head of the WTO 
Division at the Ministry of External Commerce.  Benjelloun 
declined to provide an official response pending 
inter-ministerial coordination on the issue.  He said, 
however, that in principle Morocco is supportive of any 
measure that reduces non-tariff barriers to trade and that 
increases the "transparency" of labelling and other 
requirements.  He committed to gather his colleagues from 
other concerned Ministries to review the proposal in detail 
and to provide us with an answer as quickly as possible.
