REF: SECSTATE 148000
Classified By: Ambassador J. Thomas Schieffer. Reasons 1.4 (b,d)
1. (C) Regarding Total interest in the Azadegan project, we
spoke to Shin Hosaka, director of the Petroleum and Gas
Division at ANRE, who said that he was not privy to INPEX's
private negotiations. We noted that METI was a major
shareholder in INPEX but he insisted he would be getting his
information about these closed negotiations from the
newspapers. He did note, however, that he did not expect the
Iranians to complete the de-mining process by the September
15 deadline.
2. (U) Post has also attempted without success to reach
Manabu Miyagawa, director of the Economic Security Division
in MOFA's Economic Affairs BUreau. We will report pertinent
information as we acquire it.
