RESOLUTIONS
REF: A. ASUNCION 1448
B. STATE 213779
1. Following up on Charge's 11/25 discussion with Vice FM
Ginenez (ref A), PolOff met with MFA International
Organizations Director Julio Peralta on 11/29 to clarify
Paraguay's voting posture on ref B resolutions. Peralta
confirmed that Paraguay would vote "yes" on the resolutions,
consistent with its votes last year.
2. Peralta noted that the GOI has not/not requested that
Paraguay vote a certain way on any specific UN resolution --
neither in discussions with VP Castiglioni in Israel last
week, or in its communications with the MFA -- but rather has
asked Paraguay to continue to support the UN's deliberative
process for achieving peace in the Middle East.
