1. (U) On April 7, poloff delivered reftel message to
Charalambos Hadjisavvas, who follows Middle Eastern issues in
the MFA's office of bilateral affairs. Hadjisavvas agreed to
investigate whether the EU planned to issue a statement and
to pass the request for demarches to his director. He noted
that Bahai leaders in Cyprus had recently approached the MFA
about abuses in Iran, but explained that, as with most issues
related to human rights in the Middle East, Cyprus would
follow the EU's lead.
