For Reasons 1.4 (b) and (d)
1. (C) PolOff delivered demarche per reftel May 24 to
Ambassador Elizabeth Harper, Director General (and number
two) at Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Harper was unaware of
any movement afoot to include a statement in support of Iran
at the NAM Ministerial. Nor had she read such language in
the draft declaration she had seen. Harper said that
Guyana's High Commissioner to the UK, Laleshwar Singh, would
attend the Ministerial and she will convey the essence of the
demarche to him.
2. (C) Speaking more generally, Harper said that Guyana was
strongly in favor of peace and security, and thus supported
efforts to curb the proliferation of both conventional arms
and nuclear weapons. She added that Guyana's principal
multilateral concern is that the development agenda has
"fallen by the wayside" at bodies such as the UN. Guyana
intends to "advocate more forcibly" for the revitalization of
the development agenda going forward.
