REF: STATE 57541

1.(SBU) On April 19, we delivered reftel points regarding
financial shortfalls for election costs in Afghanistan to
Anne Glad Fredriksen, Adviser in the MFA's Section for South
Asian Affairs. Fredriksen noted Norway's existing support of
international efforts in Afghanistan, as evidenced by the
forthcoming visit to Kabul of five Norwegian state
secretaries (representing the MFA, the Ministries of Justice

SIPDIS
and Defense and the Prime Minister's Office). Fredriksen
would review whether Norway's budget for 2006 already
included contributions for the Afghanistan-related financial
shortfalls noted in reftel points. She noted that the only
roadblock which may prevent Norwegian contributions (if they
have not yet been made) would be that the 2006 discretionary
budget has recently been finalized.
