1. (SBU) In a telephone conversation with Ambassador Evans
this morning, Deputy Foreign Minister Arman Kirakossian, on
behalf of the Armenian Government, offered USD 100,000 in
cash to support Hurricane Katrina disaster relief efforts.
This follows the September 2 offer of as many as thirty
trained rescue workers to assist in search and rescue
operations in New Orleans (ref A).


2. (U) As instructed in reftels B and C, Post has conveyed
(a) the USG's gratitude for the Armenian Government's two
offers of assistance (i.e., a rescue team, and USD 100,000 in
cash) in response to Hurricane Katrina, and (b) the list of
priority needs.


3. (U) Please advise whether Post may proceed to accept the
cash donation, in accordance with ref B.
EVANS
