1. Post has coordinated with the Embassy of Japan in Madrid
and determined that Spain intends to follow through on its
pledge to support Pakistan made during the Tokyo Donor
Conference. The Spanish MFA noted that the participation of
Deputy Foreign Minister Angel Lossada at the Tokyo Conference
reflected their deep commitment to Pakistan. The MFA could
not share specific information about the timing of Spain's
disbursements, but Post notes that pledges for other
international donor efforts have typically been processed at
the end of the calendar year. The Spanish MFA also warned
that since its contributions would be processed through UNDP,
that there might be delays related to UNDP implementation.
