Christophe,
I have been involved in the diplomatic world for the past 6 years now. I can tell you that when it comes to Ministers and that level of VIP many official considerations often get over-ridden.
It is not a good career move for some little Captain aide-de-camp to say to his Minister "but sir, you can't hand it over yet it is not stamped".
Obviously, it is always good to be suspicious and never to believe in such "fairy tales" if there is other questionable evidence. But, given tha the doc looks good, and the signature looks good, it is a strong possibility.
Alexei, any views???
