1. (SBU) On June 12, DepPolcouns delivered reftel demarche on
the treatment of Amcits in Iran to MFA A6 Directorate for
Arab and Middle East Countries First Counsellor Ioannis
Pediotis. Pediotis promised to look into the possibility of
Greece's making an approach to the Iranians.
2. (SBU) On June 18, Pediotis informed us that Greece would
not make a bilateral approach to the Iranians but that the EU

such a collective approach would be more effective than a
bilateral approach by an individual EU-member state.
