1. Acting PolCouns talked with Captain Mohammad Shara, head
of the International Cooperation office of the Public
Security Directorate (PSD),on May 31 regarding Jordanian
participation at the Center for Excellence for Stability
Police Units (COESPU) in Italy. Shara said that the PSD was
finalizing a list of 30 nominees and 7 backups for proposed
training at COESPU, and that he planned to forward this list
to the Italian Embassy in Amman next week.


2. Shara added, however, that the cost of sending 30
officers to Italy was prohibitively expensive for the PSD's
limited training budget, mentioning that the airfare alone
would cost roughly USD 700 per person. While he appreciated
U.S. efforts to explore possible assistance to help defray
costs, he emphasized that a firm decision on Jordanian
participation in COESPU training remained contingent on what
funds the U.S. would be able to provide.
