REF: ULAANBAATAR 169 AND PREVIOUS
Classified By: Ambassador Mark C. Minton, for reasons 1.5(B) and (D).
(S) MFA Director for Americas, Middle East, and Africa
Jambaldorj told ADCM on March 14 that the Cabinet decided in
the morning to extend Mongolia's 7th rotation of 100 soldiers
in Iraq until July 1 (note: the rotation had been scheduled
to depart on March 20, and to be replaced by five staff
officers). Jambaldorj confirmed that the decision was only
on the 7th rotation's extension in Iraq, and said the Cabinet
had not decided whether to send an 8th rotation thereafter.
