1. (C) Polmiloff conveyed reftel concerns to Isabelle
Poupart, Foreign Affairs Deputy Director for NATO and OSCE,
the morning of December 1. Poupart was taken aback by USG
perception that Canada was "reluctant to endorse" the
proposed text on Moldova, indicating that such a posture
would contravene longstanding Canadian policy as well as
specific instructions sent to the Canadian del regarding
Moldova. She said her office would share USG concerns and
re-issue instructions to support text that makes clear NATO's
support for Moldova and holds Russia to its commitments, as
drafted by I.S. staff.
