(C) On November 30, poloff delivered reftel demarche to
Section Head for Burma and Cambodia Mathilde Gry Nielsen,
Asia Department, MFA. Nielsen stated that MFA was aware of
A/S Campbell's visit to Burma in early November and strongly
supported U.S. efforts to encourage GOB to respond to Aung
San Suu Kyi's offer of dialogue. Nielsen added that Denmark
would follow the EU's lead on how best to support democratic
reform in Burma, but also commented that some delay in
position formulation may occur as the EU foreign policy
apparatus was still working through the recent changes
introduced by the Lisbon Treaty.
