Action Committee (EAC) on January 8 to review our security

End Summary.
2. (C) Post EAC met on January 8, 2009 and discussed
potential security risks to Embassy staff and American
citizens. The EAC determined that there is currently no
additional threat to U.S. personnel or facilities, and that
the no change to the current security posture is required.
3. (C) Small demonstrations were previously anticipated for
Friday January 9th, Saturday January 10th, and/or Sunday

be peaceful and pose no additional security risks.
