1. (C) POLOFF delivered the demarche on Kosovo independence
as instructed to Husrab Noziri, the newly appointed Head of
American and European Affairs at the Tajik Foreign Ministry.
Noziri said he would discuss the issue with his superiors,
but he would not comment on Tajikistan,s position on Kosovo
generally.
2. (C) We do not anticipate that we will receive a
substantive response by February 12. We expect Tajikistan to
side with the Russian Federation on the Kosovo issue, and we
doubt that Tajikistan will accede to our request.
3. (U) Dushanbe point of contact for follow-up information is
Greg Naarden, naardengl@state.sgov.gov.
