1. (C) Acting DCM made reftel demarche November 22 on MFA
Deputy Director of International Organizations Department,
Amb. Aqeel Behbehani, along with Italian DCM representing the
EU Presidency. The Italian's demarche did not include the
specific concerns about the new laws on Public Associations
and Religion, so Pol Chief conveyed those orally. Behbehani
promised to convey this demarche to his superiors, but stated
that Kuwait's provisional position was to abstain, in line
with Arab and Islamic consensus.
