third GI meeting in Kazakhstan. Yu said China is researching
the possibility of making a presentation on Olympic security
issues as requested by the American and Russian co-chairs and
is consulting with other agencies about whether it can give
such a presentation. Because this question involves experts
outside the Foreign Ministry, China cannot provide an answer
by the May 9 deadline and will be in touch as soon as it has
a formal response, Yu said.
3. (SBU) Poloff conveyed further information about the
FBI-sponsored GI conference in Miami and asked the Chinese to
provide a delegation list by next week. Yu said China would
send a delegation to the conference but may have difficulty
meeting the suggested registration deadline.
