¶1. Per reftel request, Poloff delivered demarche to Merab
Manjgaladze, the Head of the UN Division at the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs. Manjgaladze said that it was in Georgia's
interest to elect candidates from democratic countries to the
UN Committee Against Torture, and therefore Georgia would
support the U.S. candidate, Ms. Felice Gaer, for a seat on
the Committee. He said the Ministry will be sending
instructions shortly to its mission in Geneva instructing
them to vote for Ms. Gaer.
