1. (C) Allan Jacobsen, Head of MFA's Human Rights
Department, told A/DCM February 22 that Denmark agrees the UN
Human Rights Council is the first place that should deal with
any follow-up to the Goldstone Report, as it is the body that
commissioned the Report. He added that there might in future
be reason to involve others. Jacobsen was responding to
reftel demarche. He said Denmark is "very much pleased" that
Israel took the Report seriously.
2. (C) Jacobsen appreciated hearing about the USG's
concerns regarding the new draft UNGA resolution circulated
by the Palestinian Observer Mission, as he had not yet seen
that draft.
