1. (SBU) Poloff delivered reftel demarche on January 28 to
Khalid Takhayneh from the Foreign Ministry's International
Organizations Department. Takhayneh said he received last
week the UK's invitation to the February 7 Proliferation
Security Initiative meeting in London, and that his office
had recommended that Amb. Jamal Shamayleh, Director of the
Private Office of Foreign Minister Salaheddin al-Bashir,
represent Jordan at the event. The final decision on
representation will be taken by the FM, but Takhayneh
suggested if there were external funding for travel and
expenses it would be easier to push the recommendation
through. Takhayneh noted that parliament members are placing
pressure on the government to curtail the number of trips of
this sort, given their high cost. Poloff suggested that the
MFA contact the UK Embassy regarding potential funding.
Separately, local UKEMB PolCouns confirmed that HMG had
offered to cover travel and lodging for the Jordanian
delegation.


2. (SBU) Post will follow up and report the details on the
Jordanian attendee once the MFA has made a final decision.
