<br>
I will add as a personal opinion that: Brazil/ CGI.Br has taken
the political role of organising this important meeting; it cannot
now shirk from the corresponding political responsibilities, by
passing them on to others who have not been given the needed
legitimacy. The world sees and approves Brazil as the host and
organiser of this meeting, and it will be best if they are able to
continue to do so. Any change of perception would have important
bearing on the legitimacy and success of the meeting. <br>
<br>
I would also like to request LOG to give civil society Liaisons -
the names being already communicated to them - equal status and
involvement in your meetings and decisions as, apparently, is
being given to some other non governmental groups. <br>
<br>
In this regard I also request the Liaisons to be in contact with
the LOG, and also with us. <br>
<br>
Thanks and best regards<br>
<br>
