1. Ambassador delivered reftel talking points to Foreign
Minister Carlos Morales Troncoso on November 16, and urged
that the Dominican Republic speak up in support of the U.S.
agriculture proposal in WTO meetings and with EU member
governments. We also left those points and similar points in
previous guidance as non-papers. The Foreign Minister did
not have an immediate reply, pending review of our position
by MFA officers.


2. Embassy will report any substantive results and will take
additional opportunities to present U.S. views prior to the
Hong Kong ministerial in mid-December.
