(C) On April 20, we delivered reftel points to Kart
Juhasoo-Lawrence, MFA Counselor for U.S. Affairs, and
Kristel Kase, EU GAERC Desk Officer, and expressed our
concern over Spanish FM Moratinos' visit to Havana in
April. Estonia fully understands and agrees with U.S.
concerns, and has quietly supported the Czech Republic,
Poland, and other like-minded EU member states in EU fora.
Juhasoo-Lawrence added that Estonia understands dictators
such as Castro and what they can do to their people, and
does not see any reason to ease up on him now. The EU, she
said, is divided on this issue between new and old member
states.
