(C) Poloff delivered REFTEL demarches to Joanna Janishewska of Poland's Security Policy Department on September 2, 2005 in preparation for the Madrid MTCR Plenary later this month. Poloff emphasized the US desire for individual member states to support our proposal that countries announce their intention to pay special attention to North Korean flagged vessels even if a minority of member states prevents a consensus vote on that matter at the Plenary (Ref A). Janishewska had no immediate response to the demarche but said she would provide a more substantive response after an upcoming policy review. Ashe
