Viewing cable 09ACCRA478, DEMARCHE: URGENT NEED TO PROMOTE SOMALIA CEASEFIRE

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).

REF: STATE 50007 
 
 ΒΆ1. (U) Per reftel, PolOff delivered the demarche to Dr. Kojo 
Assan, Director, International Organizations and Multilateral 
Bureau at the Ghana MFA. Assan said that he would raise the 
issue of a public statement calling for an immediate 
ceasefire in Mogadishu with the Deputy Foreign Minister but 
that no statement could be considered because the Foreign 
Minister is out of the country until May 26. PolOff raised 
USG concerns of regional instability and reiterated the need 
for public support of a ceasefire. When PolOff asked about a 
statement after the Foreign Minister's return, Assan remained 
noncommittal simply restating that the Foreign Minister is 
abroad. Post will follow-up after May 26 and advise if 
additional information is available.
