1. (C) PolCouns on April 3 and again on April 6 raised ref
points on possible UNGA discussion of Iraq with Ali al-Ayed,
Personal Assistant to Foreign Minister Marwan Muasher.
PolCouns emphasized that, when the UNSC is "seized of an
issue of international peace and security" -- e.g. Iraq --
the UNGA should not take up the matter. Al-Ayed promised to
convey the points to the minister, but noted that Jordan
would be hard pressed to take a position different from the
Arab Bloc consensus.
