the UNSC vote to the minister of foreign affairs' chief of
staff, Anthony Dessources, on the afternoon of October 19.

the chief of staff made himself available late in the day.
End Note.) Dessources listened attentively to the points
taken from ref A and pledged to communicate the U.S. views to
the Foreign Minister immediately and recommend that he brief
the Prime Minister and President Preval by the end of the
