PolChief delivered subject demarche March 30 to Laura
Kansikas-Debraise, Director of the Finnish MFA's Unit for
Arms Control and Non-Proliferation. Kansikas-Debraise
confirmed that the GOF had received the 19 January 2007
letter from the NSG chairman suggesting, among other
things, the sharing of information regarding export denials
to Iran with the IAEA, UN Security Council, and non-NSG
governments. She said that the GOF supports sharing such
information in other fora and has no problems, on the
political level, with sharing such information. MFA
lawyers are currently examining the request, but Kansikas-
DeBraise predicted that the GOF would soon inform the NSG
of its support for information sharing.
