1. Ambassador Vladimir Lomen, UNSC Coordination Unit, told
Poloff in response to ref A and ref B points, that Slovakia
and the EU support the U.S. draft resolution on Burma and
that Slovakia will continue to work with the U.S. to find a
version that China and Russia can support as well. Lomen said
that he had received separately representatives from the
Chinese and Russian missions to Slovakia January 11, and that
both had urged Slovakia to abstain on the resolution if it
came to a vote but Lomen informed them that Slovakia would
vote for the resolution. Lomen said the Chinese do not want
the resolution to pass but also do not want to have to use
their veto.
