Real Diplomacy and Peacekeeping

US State Department cables from places I have served plus items from my time as a UN peacekeeper. To increase public awareness of how diplomacy and peacekeeping are (were) actually done. All cables cleared by USG FOIA procedure. Cables are mostly those sent under my name from my posts but also others in which I was directly involved. UN documents and other items will also include occasional notes and background. Most recent in series on top with cables under the new series of UN documents.

The Sudanese government was on its best behavior believing they were now on a track that might lead to a more positive relationship with the US ans eventually lifting of sanctions.
