SUBJECT: PERU: INTERNATIONAL MARITIME ORGANIZATION DEMARCHE
IN SUPPORT OF U.S. CANDIDACY

REF: STATE 207080

(SBU) Econoffs delivered Reftel demarche to Elvira Gomez, MFA
Director for Maritime Affairs and Nestor Palacios, Vice
Minister of Transportation on November 16. VM Palacios
indicated to Econoff that while the U.S. should be able to
obtain the support necessary to be reelected to the Category
A Board, he deferred to the MFA for the GOP's official
position. Gomez told Econoff that she had to forward the
demarche for official action to the MFA office for
candidacies, she anticipated no problem with Peru's support
of the U.S. candidacy. Gomez noted the key and constructive
role that the U.S. has played from the founding of the IMO to
the present.
