1. (SBU) In response to Ref A, and further to Ref B, the MFA informed us on April 16 by diplomatic note of the GOCR's intention to support the USG's candidacy for a seat on the Human Rights Council for the period of 2009-2012. 2. (SBU) COMMENT: GOCR officials have previously urged the USG to consider running for a seat on the Council, stating that it would add balance to the Council's membership. As such, Costa Rica's support is a welcome example of the GOCR walking it's talk on this UN issue. CIANCHETTE |
