¶1. (SBU) On May 11, PolOff delivered reftel demarche to Aizaz
Ahmad Chaudhry, Ministry of Foreign Affairs Director General
in charge of OIC affairs. Chaudhry said that he was aware of
Albania's efforts to obtain OIC endorsement for UN Special
Envoy Ahtisaari's proposal during the upcoming OIC Summit in
Islamabad. Chaudhry said that the issue was tabled at the
OIC pre-summit conference in Jeddah last month, but delegates
were unable to reach consensus because of reservations by
both Indonesia and Qatar. Chaudhry said that the Government
of Pakistan supports Ahtisaari's report and emphasized
Pakistan's belief that it is important to support the UN.
Because it remains unresolved after the Jeddah pre-summit
conference, Kosovo will be on the agenda of the OIC Special
Committee tasked to resolve outstanding issues. Chaudhry
promised that Pakistan will work to gain Indonesia's support
for Ahtisaari's proposal in the OIC Special Committee.
