1. This is an Action Request. See paragraphs 2-4.
2. The Department's Office of Defense Trade Controls
Compliance (PM/DTCC) requests Embassy's assistance in
conducting a post-shipment check on license 050104624 for the
export of a military antenna to the Qatar Armed Forces (QAF).
Embassy is requested to complete this Blue Lantern check
within 45 days. Lack of response to a Blue Lantern check
will affect pending and future licenses involving parties to
this license.
3. Reason for request: Concern over the reliability of
Eurotradia and Satori, foreign consignees.
4. ACTION: Embassy is requested to make inquiries with
appropriate QAF officials to determine if it has received the
antenna and that is being used for the purpose stated on the
license. What is the nature of the QAF's relationship with
Satori and Eurotradia? Why did it order this item via France?
How will the antenna be used? Due to the absence of
documentation from the QAF, post is encouraged to use its
knowledge of host country to locate appropriate POC within
the QAF. END ACTION.
