(C) Econoff delivered reftel points on updating the Taliban
sanctions list to Vladimir Prokhorov, Senior Legal Counsel in
the MFA's Department of New Threats and Challenges.
Prokhorov said the GOR would review its previous Taliban
designation submissions and its Taliban designations
currently under consideration. Nevertheless, he said the MFA
harbored reservations that this updating effort could be the
first step in a process to delist existing Taliban
designations, a move that Moscow has instructed its UN
Mission to oppose.
