to Combat Nuclear Terrorism to MFA Multilateral Affairs Under
Secretary Emilio Izquierdo on May 12. The group provided
Izquierdo a comprehensive background paper on the subject
prepared by the Spanish Foreign Ministry.
2. (C) Izquierdo was not familiar with the initiative, and
was curious how other Latin American countries like Chile and
Panama had learned about it and already become participants.
He said he considered the initiative an important one for
Ecuador and saw no reason why Ecuador would not be willing to
sign on. He promised to study the matter further and consult
with the Foreign Minister.
