delivered on April 21 reftel demarche and a proposed agenda
for the June plenary of the Global Initiative to Combat
Nuclear Terrorism (GICNT) to Nabil Masarweh, Office Director
to Jordan's Foreign Minister, and Samer Naber, who recently
returned from an assignment to Jordan's Embassy in Washington
and has not yet been assigned an MFA position. Masarweh
asked about the level of participation and requested a
non-paper with details of the initiative and the plenary to
facilitate information-sharing with Jordanian officials,
including from Customs and the General Intelligence
Department. Naber added that the non-paper should also
address in more detail the topics that the Jordanians are
being asked to present at the meeting. He noted that Jordan
was a signatory of the Convention for the Suppression of the
Financing of Terrorism and fulfills its obligations under the
UN Security Council Anti-Terrorism Resolution 1373 of 2001.

Jordanian MFA's request, Post asks that the Department
provide a non-paper about the initiative and plenary
planning, including level of participation. The paper should
also lay out in greater detail the topics that the Jordanians
are being asked to present at the conference.

DCM to coordinate a troika demarche, but scheduling conflicts
prevented his attendance. Polchief will provide details on
the outcome of the demarche to the Russian DCM per his
request.
