1. (C) China has yet to study the text of the follow-on
amendment to UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1820 but
plans to give the proposed draft "positive consideration,"
according to MFA International Organizations and Conferences
Department UN Affairs Division official Cheng Lie. In
response to reftel points urging China to support the
U.S.-drafted follow-on resolution to UNSCR 1820, Cheng told
PolOff September 17 that China had received information on
the draft follow-on resolution from its mission in NY and
would review the proposed text carefully. According to
Cheng, China viewed sexual violence as a serious problem and
hoped it would be able to cooperate with the United States on
UNSCR 1820. China expected to reach a decision on the
proposed follow-on text before the general debate in New York
next week.
