1. (SBU) Drawing on reftel A, we urged on July 24 that ASEAN
adopt a balanced approach to the current violence in Lebanon
and Isreal. We conveyed talking points contained reftel to
Aziz Nurwahyudi of the Indonesian Department of Foreign
Affairs' Subdirectorate for ASEAN Political and Security
Affairs. Nurwahyudi said that Indonesia's delegation had
already departed for the ASEAN Summit in Kuala Lumpur, but
undertook to coordinate the non-paper with them.
2. (C) We note that the talking points cover much the same
substance as Department's guidance provided to the staff of
President Yudhoyono on July 20 (Ref B). The President's
office had requested background material in connection with a
meeting that Yudhoyono held with Ambassadors from Middle
Eastern countries and the designation of former Foreign
Minister Alatas as Special Envoy for the Middle East.
Judging by President Yudhoyono's statements to the press
following that meeting, Department's guidance was taken on
board.
