1. (C) On July 1, A/DCM discussed the upcoming July 11 Kosovo
Donors Conference with Leon Marc, head of the MFA's Division
for Southeastern Europe, and encouraged Slovenia to pledge at
the EC-sponsored donors' conference. Marc said that although
the government had not yet cleared the amount of the pledge,
it would be a good contribution in relative terms for
Slovenia. He noted that Slovenia was not happy that the
Commission had decided to issue the invitations at his level
rather than higher so as not to upset the member states that
have not yet recognized Kosovo. Marc stated that the
Slovenian MFA would host Kosovo FM Hyseni on July 7 on a
working visit to see how Slovenia can help the emerging MFA
in Kosovo. Marc added that Slovenia was doing this in
conjunction with its role as a member of the external
relations subgroup of the ISG.
