1. (C) POLOFF delivered demarches (Refs A and B) on April 3
and March 31 respectively to Isolde Moylan, Regional
Director, Office of Asia and Oceania, Department of Foreign
Affairs. Moylan responded that the government of Ireland is

Afghanistan/Pakistan review process and the strategy arising
from it. Despite the tough budgetary times, Moylan said, the
government of Ireland is reviewing how it may be able to
enhance its support for the new strategy. (Note: Ireland
currently provides seven troops to ISAF through the
Partnership for Peace program and has donated over euro 16
million (USD20.2 million) to Afghanistan in relief, recovery,
and development assistance. End note.)
2. (C) Post will continue to press Irish government
officials for firm commitments.
