SUBJECT: GOP NOTIFICATION OF BALLISTIC MISSILE TEST

Classified By: Ambassador Ryan C. Crocker, Reasons 1.4 (b) and (d)

(S/NF) On November 28, MFA (Disarmament Cell) Director Imran
Haider advised PolCouns that the Government of Pakistan (GOP)
will conduct a test of a ballistic surface-to-surface missile. The launch window is between November 29 and December 3, 2006. The missile's overflight will be within Pakistan's territorial borders. Per existing agreements with India, the GOP has already notified the appropriate officials in New Delhi of the coming test. As a courtesy, the GOP has also notified the Governments of China, Afghanistan and Iran of the coming test. CROCKER
