1. Poloff delivered reftel's talking points to Marcia Adorno of the
MFA's Division for Human Rights. During the discussion Adorno
reflected on Wedgewood's "impressive resume" and record as an
incumbent, making special note of Wedgewood's demanding analysis of
Brazil's latest report. However, Adorno was unable verify whether
Brazil would support Wedgewood's nomination claiming that the GoB is
"still evaluating" candidates. She followed this declaration by
noting that the GoB has already agreed to support several other
candidates, for a limited number of seats; although, she was unaware
of how many others and whether the GoB still had votes available to
support other nominations. Adorno has agreed to look into the
situation further and provide additional information at a later
time.
