1. (C) Poloff delivered reftel points to Raimondo De Cardona,
Head of the MFA Balkans Office, on September 10. De Cardona
agreed with the USG assessment that the international
community needed to reassert its authority in Bosnia in order
to maintain stability and move forward on Dayton
implementation. De Cardona noted that Italy strongly
supports Lajcak and would support him regardless of how he
chooses to interpret his role. De Cardona hinted that Italy
would be supportive of possible punitive measures against
Silajdzic and Dodik if they continue to block key
initiatives.
2. (C) De Cardona did not comment on the suspension of the
proposed EU visa facilitation program saying he had not seen
the specifics of the program or its timing to comment fully,
but promised to consider the USG proposal seriously.
