1. (C) Ambassador Hertell spoke with GODR Foreign Minister
Francisco Guerrero Prats this morning and requested the GODR
to discourage the Palestinians from introducing a separate
resolution in the UNGA regarding Israeli credentials. The
Ambassador asked if such a resolution is introduced, for the
Foreign Minister to instruct the Dominican PermRep to the UN
to vote against the it. Foreign Minister Prats said he was
unaware of the vote and would discuss the matter with his
ambassador in charge of international organizations.


2. (C) Head of the International Organizations Desk at the
Dominican Foreign Ministry, Ambassador Jesus Maria Hernandez,
called Poloff shortly thereafter to report that he and
Foreign Minister Prats had discussed the issue. The
Dominican PermRep has been instructed to discourage the
introduction of a Palestinian resolution on credentials, and
to vote against the resolution if it is introduced in the
UNGA.
