SUBJECT: ROMANIAN RESPONSE TO DEMARCHE REGARDING SUPPORT
FOR CONSTITUTIONAL ASSISTANCE TO IRAQ

REF: SECSTATE 124857

SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED. PLEASE HANDLE ACCORDINGLY

(SBU) Poloff discussed coordination of constitutional
assistance to Iraq July 15 with MFA Director for the Middle
East, Asia and Africa, Andreea Pastarnac, providing her a
nonpaper that stressed the importance of the international
community's support for Iraq's constitutional process (Ref).
During a July 18 follow-up conversation, Pastarnac told
PolOff that Romania remains committed to tangibly assisting
the development of democratic institutions in Iraq. She
noted that Romania had, indeed, committed to providing
support for constitutional reform, although there are no
programs currently underway. She added, however, that
Romania plans "institutional reconstruction" support for the
Iraqi justice sector, as well as other areas (Septel). She
also stated that the GOR would welcome further suggestions
from the U.S. in regard to possible support it could provide
to further of Iraq's constitutional process.
