(C) In a March 9 conversation with Singapore Police
Commissioner and Interpol Executive Committee Vice President
Khoo Boon Hui, the DCM urged Singapore to support the
Interpol Secretariat's proposed compromise to issue six Red
Flags in connection with the 1994 bombing of the
Argentine-Israeli Mutual Association (Reftel). Commissioner
Khoo received with interest the information that the United
States supported the Interpol-proposed compromise. Khoo said
that he understood the USG position and would consider it
positively. He did not commit to vote with us, but gave the
DCM the strong impression that our supporting the Interpol
position made his decision easier. He noted that the
Argentinean Charge d'Affaires, resident in Jakarta, had met
with him on this issue on March 8.
