Service Commission to Christine Somerhausen, Attache in the
United Nations Department of the Belgian Ministry of Foreign

U.S. mission in New York shortly before the vote, stating its
position on Ms. Myers. She said that Foreign Minister

vote for, but was unwilling to commit the GOB to support Ms.
