1. (U) Polcouns followed up with Foreign Ministry Director
of Multilateral Affairs Julio Garro on the demarche dealing
with the "Summit of the Americas Doha Stand Alone Statement"
(Ref A) on 11/02. Garro stated that the Ministry would be
reviewing the proposed statement with the Foreign Trade
Ministry (November 1 was a local holiday).


2. (C) COMMENT: Foreign Minister Oscar Maurtua, on 10/28,
told the Ambassador that Peru is uncomfortable with the
proposals for stand alone declarations at the Summmit as a
procedural matter, without specific regard to their substance
(Ref B). Consequently, the Peruvian Summit delegation's
enthusiasm for this and other stand alone declarations may be
muted. Post suggests that USDEL consider lobbying the
Foreign Ministry's point man on the Summit, U/S for Political
Affairs Fernando Rojas, who is already in Argentina, heading
up the Peruvian Summit negotiating team. END COMMENT.
