1. (C) On July 25, Poloff delivered the points in reftel to
Nasser Bourita, Director of United Nations and International
Organizations in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. According
to Bourita, the GOM thinks the P5 1 incentive package for
Iran is excellent and the Iranians have no reason not to
accept the package. Bourita emphasized, however, that the
deadline is not the major issue, rather any pressure on Iran
should be on coming to an agreement.


2. (C) Bourita continued to talk about the Iranian
situation, describing it as an external and an internal
matter. Managing the issue in Iran seems to be the problem.
According to Bourita, the Iranian security advisory council
was responsible until the foreign ministry recently
reasserted its authority. The Iranians are presently
involved in a dynamic, internal reflection process, Bourita
said. In his communication with the Iranians, Bourita said
he reinforces the validity of the incentive package to ensure
non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, to reinforce a mutual
understanding of security concerns and to point out that only
through involvement in the international organizations will
nuclear energy exist in Iran within acceptable safety
parameters. Bourita said that he consistently tells Iranian
contacts that the situation is not the West against Iran, but
rather a transparent attempt to have Iran join the
international community.


3. (C) Bourita said that he felt it is a mistake to allow
the UNSC to become a threat. Rather, the UNSC needs to be
understood as a place where issues can be peacefully
resolved. Continuing, he said that the US is doing itself a
disservice by not making the incentive package more widely
known, particularly in the "Arab World," which would generate
indirect pressure on Iran to accept the package.
