REF: STATE 105422
(SBU) Poloff delivered reftel points outlining USG concerns
about the post-hurricane humanitarian situation in Cuba to
Ministry of Foreign Affairs Multilateral Affairs Officer
Gustavo Argueta on October 8. Argueta pointed out that this
is not the first time the USG has offered aid to Cuba and
been denied by the Cuban regime. He said it was a difficult
situation, particularly because few NGOs are able to operate
in Cuba. Argueta suggested that the USG use multilateral
channels to offer humanitarian assistance.
