Subject: For your Bad list, slice 2 Europe v& on the GSP
Dear David,
thanks again for the BAD-update (you like puns, eh?)
I was not sure whether I overlooked it, but maybe you do not yet have
included in Belgium this adress of the Liaison Committee. I have no name in
particular, but they sometimes publish on Burma in their newsletter, whoch
has a wide circle of distribution. I for example try to have them report on
our briefings and such.
Liaison Committee of Development NGO's to the EU (Liaison Committee)
Square Ambiorix 10

tel: (+32-2)-736.2030/4087
fax: (+32-2)-736.1934/1897
e-mail: vvanbelle@xxxxxxxx (that is one individual)
On the GSP, I have heard the following
France, Germany and the UK are delaying a decision by the Council of
Ministers of Finance, that will discuss the advise from the European
Commission this Friday.
Balthasar Benz does not expect a decision to be taken before the ECOFIN of
17/02/1997, but still does not expect a problem. Another source at the
GSP-commission said that Germany and France are dead against it (not
officially, but apparently on the level of the Committee of Permanent
Representatives).
According to Glenys Kinnock also the UK is delaying the decission. She heard
that 'they' (all of them) want it postponed until there is sufficient reason
to also apply economic sanctions on Burma.
Hoping to have informed you with this, kind regards to Zunette if you see
her, I was called several times by the radio on her report!~
