RESOLUTION
REF: A. STATE 142509
B. USUN 1660
1. (U) Co-sponsorship of the draft UN Security Council
resolution on Darfur is "under serious consideration" by
Tanzania, Ambassador Liberata Mulamula, Director of the
Department of Multilateral Cooperation in the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs, told Poloff August 30. Poloff inquired as
to whether instructions had been sent from the capital to New
York and Mulamula said the Tanzanian delegation in New York
just received the draft resolution and she expects
instructions to be sent from the capital shortly. Mulamula
and Poloff agreed to discuss the issue again at OOB August
31.
2. (SBU) COMMENT: "Seriously considering" co-sponsoring the
resolution indicates there is a real possibility of Tanzanian
co-sponsorship. Post will press the Tanzanians again at OOB
August 31 when they have the final text of the resolution in
hand. The DCM subsequently followed up with Ambassador
Mulamula, emphasizing the importance the United States
attaches to this resolution and Tanzanian co-sponsorship.
