U.S. delegates pushed for removal of resolution language calling on governments to "protect, promote and support breast-feeding." According to the Times, they also issued an ultimatum: If Ecuador didn't drop the resolution, Washington would withdraw military aid and issue punishing trade measures. Ecuador backed down. Russia stepped in Fearing retaliation, several other countries backed away from the measure as well, according to the report. Russia was not dissuaded and introduced it. The final resolution largely reflected the original wording. But the U.S. insisted on removing language calling on the World Health Organization to offer technical support to officials trying to stop “inappropriate promotion of foods for infants and young children,” according to the Times.

Does anyone know off the top of their heads who the current US delegates are, and who appointed them?
