1. (U) Poloff met with three small groups of Iranians in
front of the U.S. Embassy in Brussels on July 28, 29 and 31.
Members of each group had immediate family inside Camp Ashraf
and left Poloff with literature, which has been sent to the
NEA/I desk. Their requests were for the U.S. to intervene
and stop the Iraqis bulldozing the camp, committing human
rights abuses and relocating the residents. On July 31,
approximately 25 Iranians peacefully demonstrated across the
street from the Embassy from 12-2pm. Similar demonstrations
are expected on August 1 and 3.
