1. (C) China is unwilling to give a joint demarche with other
P5-plus-1 nations on the issue of Chad and Sudan, Ministry of
Foreign Affairs (MFA) International Organizations and
Conferences Department Attache Diao Junshu told PolOff March

14. In an after-hours phone call, she dictated the following
message: "We attach great importance to the issues of Sudan
and Chad. As you know, these are not new problems. We think
it is better that the P5-plus-1 countries continue to work on
this problem separately, through their own channels, for
greater effectiveness. We share the same opinions as other
P5-plus-1 nations regarding these issues, although we have
small differences in how we express them."
