Titled “A/S Gordon’s meeting with policy makers in Paris,” the cable summarizes
a Sept. 16, 2009 get-together between Philip Gordon, then assistant U.S. Secretary
of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, and French diplomats Jean-David
Levitte, Damien Loras, and Francois Richier. Gordon is currently a special
assistant to President Obama on the Middle East.
While the bulk of the cable covers an exchange of views concerning Iran, the
second to last item is entitled “NATO’s enlargement and strategic concept.”
At this point Levitte, former French ambassador to the US from 2002 to 2007,
interjects that “[French] President [Nicholas] Sarkozy was ‘convinced’ that
Ukraine would one day be a member of NATO, but that there was no point in rushing
the process and antagonizing Russia, particularly if the Ukrainian public was
largely against membership.” Gordon goes on to paraphrase Levitte’s opinion
that, “the Bucharest summit declaration was very clear that NATO had an open
door and Ukraine and Georgia have a vocation in NATO.”
