1. (C) Reftel talking points were delivered to
Vlad Chirinciuc of the Moldovan Ministry of
Foreign Affairs on January 23, 2009. Chirinciuc,
Head of the American Desk at the MFA, stated that
the fact that Antonov did not reject the idea that
Moldova also belonged in the CFE package was a
positive signal for Moldova. He was somewhat
surprised by the fact that the U.S. and Russia
were so close to sharing a point of view on
Moldova. He thanked the embassy for keeping him
apprised of these developments and said that he
would like to be further in the loop on such
developments. He also noted that he would
document the demarche specifics and would send it
to his Foreign Minister as soon as he could. He
ended the meeting by noting that he was always
ready to meet with representatives from the
embassy.
