Viewing cable 09CAIRO2053, DEMARCHE DELIVERED: UN CONVENTION AGAINST

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

SUBJECT: DEMARCHE DELIVERED: UN CONVENTION AGAINST 
CORRUPTION 
 
REF: STATE 106225 
 
(SBU) On October 19, we delivered reftel points to MFA Deputy 
Director for International Legal Affairs and Conventions 
Ibrahim El-Diwany, urging Egypt to join the international 
consensus on a transparent and effective review mechanism for 
the UN Convention Against Corruption at the November 9-13 
Doha Conference.  El-Diwany had no substantive response, and 
said that the Public Prosecutor's office has the lead on the 
issue.  At El-Diwany's request, we sent the MFA a dipnote on 
October 21 that requested a meeting with Judge Ahmed 
El-Deniri at the Public Prosecutor's office and included 
reftel talking points as a nonpaper for Judge El-Deniri. 
El-Diwany confirmed that the Public Prosecutor's office 
received the dipnote.  We will deliver reftel demarche to the 
Public Prosecutor's office in person when we are granted a 
meeting.
