USUN INSTRUCTION: JENKINS DUNBAR FOCAL POINT

UNCLAS STATE 118603 SIPDIS E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: KDEM KTFN LI PGOV PREL PTER UNSC SUBJECT: USUN INSTRUCTION: JENKINS DUNBAR FOCAL POINT DELISTING REQUEST REF: SCSOB/DL/2008/OC.91 ¶1. This is an action request. USUN is instructed to inform the Focal Point that the United States has no objection to the delisting requests for Jenkins DUNBAR. While Mr. DUNBAR's request only concerns removal from the travel ban list maintained by the UNSC Liberia Sanctions Committee, the United States would also have no objection to delisting Mr. Dunbar from the asset freeze list. We do not consider Jenkins Dunbar to pose an ongoing threat to the peace and stability in Liberia and the subregion, and we do not believe he has ongoing ties to former Liberian President Charles Taylor. If delisted by the UNSC Liberia Sanctions Committee, Mr. Dunbar (DOB: 10 Jan 1947) would no longer be subject to the measures imposed by paragraph 4 of UN Security Council resolution 1521 (2003) and paragraph 1 of resolution 1532 (2004),which include a travel ban and asset freeze. ¶2. Department appreciates Mission's efforts. RICE
