1. EconOff relayed reftel demarche on October 29 to Juan Luis
Munoz de Laborde, MFA's Deputy Director for Economic
Multilateral Relations. EconOff asked that Spain support the
U.S. candidacy for Category A membership to the International
Maritime Organization (IMO) council. Munoz de Laborde
expressed Spain's support by saying that because U.S.
maritime interests were so strong, U.S. membership should
continue in the same category. Munoz de Laborde confirmed
that Spain would re-seek Category B membership.
