1. (C) Reftel asked addressees to urge host governments and
their domestic nuclear industries to refuse to submit bids
for the construction of two new reactors in Iran. To that
end, ESTH met with Heriberto Jose Boado, the Argentine Atomic
Energy Commission's Director of Institutional Relations; with
Sebastian Sayus, who handles nuclear issues at the MFA; and
with Marcelo Salvatore, Strategic Operations Manager of the
Nuclear Division of Argentine high-tech company INVAP, the
domestic nuclear supplier with the most relevant
capabilities.
2. (C) Each of the above-named individuals immediately
understood our points and readily agreed that Argentina would
have nothing to do with the Iranian reactor bids.
