1. (SBU) Classified by Econ Counselor Scot Marciel. Reasons 1.5 (b) (d). 2. (C) Econoff conveyed names and background paper in reftel to Hakan Okcal, Director General for Research and Intelligence at the Foreign Ministry in a June 16 meeting. Noting the need to keep the information close hold until June 19, Okcal undertook to pass it on to relevant offices in the Ministries of Finance and Justice for immediate review. He stressed, however, that given that the planned U.S. action will occur outside of a United Nations framework, Turkey could only follow suit through judicial rather than administrative proceedings.
