1. (S) German MFA Export Control Division Desk Officer Wiebke
Wacker informed Global Affairs Officer October 5 that the
German Government has updated its national export control
list in an effort to prevent Iran from acquiring non-listed
radar surveillance equipment that might enhance Iran's
military capabilities. Wacker passed an English-language
nonpaper, noting a similar non-paper had been shared with
other EU member states.
2. (S) Begin text of English-language nonpaper:
-- Germany would like to inform the U.S. authorities that the
German national export control list has been updated with a
view to preventing the acquisition of non-listed radar
surveillance equipment that might enhance Iran's military
capabilities.
-- A recent decision to prevent the export of non-listed
goods to Iran gave reason to the introduction of new list
items 6A908 and 6D908 on Germany's national control list with
the following content:
-- Item Number 6A908: radar-based navigation and monitoring
systems for shipping and air traffic which are not covered by
list items 6A008 or 6A108, as well as especially designed
components for these systems, if Iran is the buying or
destination country.
-- Item Number 6D908: software which is designed or modified
for the development, the manufacture, or the use of equipment
covered by list item 6A908, if Iran is the buying or
destination country.
-- Germany would like to draw the United States' attention to
possible attempts by Iran to substitute these goods from
other sources.
-- We look forward to our continuing cooperation on matters
of nonproliferation and export control policy.
