Viewing cable 09LONDON2131, DEMARCHE RESPONSE FOR UNGA FOOD SECURITY EVENT

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

ΒΆ1. We delivered invitation letter and draft statement to the offices of UK Foreign Secretary David Miliband and the Secretary of State for International Development, Douglas Alexander, on Friday, 11 September.  In the UK, the Department for International Development, DFID, is the policy lead on food security issues.  As such, recommendations for the Foreign Secretary's attendance will be made by DFID.  2. DFID contacts told us September 14 that the decision on would attend was still pending, but that they expect high-level UK attendance, as food security remains a key foreign policy priority for the Foreign Office and DFID.  We will advise as soon as we have a decision from HMG.  Visit London's Classified Website: XXXXXXXXXXXX
