SUBJECT: IRELAND SHARES USG CONCERNS OVER RUSSIAN DRAFT LAW
ON NGOS

REF: SECSTATE 212899

Classified By: POL/ECON CHIEF MARY DALY, FOR REASONS 1.4 (B),(D)

(C) On November 28, emboff delivered reftel points to
Department of Foreign Affairs Eastern Europe and Central Asia
Deputy Director Ruaidhri Dowling. Dowling said that the GOI
shares the USG's concern that the new Russian draft law could
be used to constrain NGO activities and added that this law
may lead to severe consequences for Russian civil society.
According to Dowling, since the UK Presidency is
communicating the EU's concern directly to the GOR, Ireland
is unlikely to take any high level bilateral action on this
matter.
