1. (U) Classified by Ambassador Marcelle M. Wahba for
reasons 1.5 (B) and (D).
2. (C) In delivering the Secretary's oral message
(refs A and B),Ambassador previewed ref C talking
points with UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs
Shaykh Hamdan bin Zayid Al-Nahyan on 4/13. The
Ambassador said we would be following up with UAEG
officials. Shaykh Hamdan responded that the UAEG
would take this and other requests for humanitarian
assistance to Iraq under consideration. Post will
follow-up with MFA officials, but anticipates
questions regarding the logistics of delivery and
distribution of the refined petroleum products to
Iraq. We would appreciate guidance on how to respond
to these questions, as well as any further information
available about our assessment of Iraq's domestic
petroleum needs -- especially in light of recent press
reports that Iraq's northern oil fields and associated
refineries have not been significantly damaged by
Coalition or Iraqi forces.
