2. DURING HIS MEETING WITH CARDINAL FRESNO
(REFTEL), AMBASSADOR ASKED WHETHER FINAL SENATE
PASSAGE OF THE RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE
NATIONAL ACCORD WOULD BE HELPFUL AT THIS STAGE OR
NOT. AMBASSADOR SAID THAT IF BROUGHT TO A
VOTE THE RESOLUTION WOULD PROBABLY BE APPROVED
BY A LARGE MAJORITY, PERHAPS 80 TO 85 OF THE 100
SENATORS. CARDINAL WAS SURPRISED TO LEARN
THAT RESOLUTION HAD NOT YET PASSED THE SENATE.
HE SAID THAT IT WOULD INDEED STILL BE USEFUL,
ESPECIALLY IF IT HAD THAT KIND OF MAJORITY BEHIND
IT. HE SAID IT WOULD LEND IMPORTANT SUPPORT TO
DIALOGUE AND MODERATION. BARNES
