¶1. (C/REL USA, GBR, AUS, CAN) Turkish Mosul Consul
General-designate H. Avni Botsali contacted us May 30 to
report that the Governor of Ninewah Province was released
from the hospital and was returning to Mosul that day.
Botsali did not accompany him as he had hoped because
security arrangements for his visit were not yet in place.
Botsali now hopes to travel to Mosul on June 5. He repeated
his requests for security escort from the border for Turkish
vehicles and personnel (but not/not in Mosul),security
check-point passes and calls on PRT Chief Munter and BG Rife
(reftel).
