    SUBJECT: APPROACH TO NEW ZEALAND ON ISRAEL/JUSCANZ

    REF: STATE 36771

    Classified By: Ambassador William McCormick,
    for reasons 1.4 (b) and (d)

    ¶1.  (C) Summary:  As requested reftel, Ambassador McCormick
    and the Australian and Canadian High Commissioners called on
    Foreign Minister Peters to urge that New Zealand support
    Israeli membership in the Geneva JUSCANZ group.  Peters
    promised to discuss the issue with Prime Minister Clark, and
    we are hopeful GNZ's position will change.  As Peters   is on
    travel again this week, Post will follow up with Foreign
    Ministry staff.  End Summary.

    ¶2.  (C) When post received reftel, Foreign Minister Winston
    Peters was on travel and our Australian and Canadian
    counterparts had not yet been issued instructions from their
    respective capitols.  In order to get more background on
    GNZ's position, Pol-Econ Counselor quietly raised the issue
    on March 10 with Val Meyer, Director of the Human Rights
    Division at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.  Meyer
    said that New Zealand officials were making a stand as a
    point of principle.  They view JUSCANZ as a group of
    "like-minded" countries united on Human Rights issues, and
    believe Israel is not sufficiently "like-minded", she said.
    NZ's Geneva rep has also reported that other JUSCANZ members
    were opposed to Israel's joining JUSCANZ, but as these
    members are from small delegations they haven't spoken up.
    (Meyer declined to name the countries.)  She admitted that
    Ministers had given clear guidance to the Geneva rep that NZ
    should not continue to block Israel's admission if there is
    consensus among other JUSCANZ members that Israel should
    join.

    ¶3.  (C) Meanwhile, DCM discussed our concerns with Hamish
    Cooper, Minister Peter's Private Secretary.  Cooper pushed
    back a bit, but seemed very interested to learn that NZ was
    apparently isolated in its views.

    ¶4.  (C) On March 25, the Ambassador called on Minister
    Peters, together with Australian High Commission John Dauth
    and Canadian High Commissioner Penny Reedie.  The Ambassador
    raised the general issue of anti-Israel discrimination in the
    UN.  Dauth, who has just come to Wellington following a term
    as Australia's UN Perm Rep in New York, gave a number of
    examples, including the UN Racism Conference in South Africa.
     The COMs also indicated that New Zealand is effectively
    standing alone in strongly opposing Israel's membership in
    JUSCANZ.

    ¶5.  (C) Peters said he would discuss the matter with the
    Prime Minister.  He implied he did not think New Zealand
    would have a problem with changing its stance.  Post is
