REF: STATE 19851
1. (SBU) Currently, ratification of the UNESCO Convention on the
Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions is
not on the Brazilian Congress' agenda. With the attention of the
legislative branch diverted to the ongoing influence peddling
scandal and the upcoming October 2006 elections, and the focus of
the media and the public on the soccer World Cup in July, we doubt
that Convention will be voted on this calendar year.
2. (U) Post will keep Washington agencies informed should the
situation here change.
