REF: SECSTATE 111144
1. (SBU) PolOff delivered message and statement July 7 per
reftel to Ministry of Foreign Affairs' acting director for
Department of Americas and Asia, Audrey Waddell. Waddell did
not have a response to the points about North Korea's missile
launches and did not seem very familiar with the issue.
However, she will pass the message and statement up to the
Ministry's Director-General. Although Guyana once enjoyed
close relations with North Korea in the 1970s and 1980s
(former ruler Forbes Burnham admired and tried to emulate Kim
Il-Sung's personality cult),Post believes this relationship
has withered considerably. North Korea abruptly closed its
embassy in Guyana several years ago.
