Poloff reiterated March 3 to the Foreign Ministry's Office
Director for the UNSC David Olvera the USG's strong desire
not to see an Article 16 resolution tabled at the Security
Council that would defer the probable ICC arrest warrant for
Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir. Olvera reaffirmed
the GOM's support for ICC action on this case and its
objection to an Article 16 resolution.
