SIPDIS FOR EUR/RPM AND SCA/A E.O. 12958: DECL: 09/12/2018 TAGS: NATO PREL MOPS MARR AF CA SUBJECT: ISAF AMENDMENT OPLAN TO EXPAND CN AUTHORITIES REF: SECSTATE 96741 Classified By: Acting Political Counselor Kurt van der Walde, 1.4 (b) & (d) (C) Senior NATO Policy Advisor Amy Galigan at the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) told us on September 11 that she was already aware of the U.S. views contained in the reftel demarche. Due to the September 7 decision by Prime Minister Harper to call a national election on October 14, the government is currently in caretaker mode. Consequently DFAIT is extremely limited in the substantive responses it can give on this and any other foreign policy questions until after the election, she said.
