Foreign Secretary Domingo Siazon denied yesterday that he ever said outgoing
Presidential Spokesman Fernando Barican was unfit to become an ambassador.

Siazon explained that the possibility of Barican heading either of two plum
diplomatic posts - the United Nations in New York or as Washington envoy - was
not included in the discussions on the spokesman's new assignment.

In diplomacy, he said, it was improper to talk about replacements when the
posts were still occupied.
