1. PolOff delivered reftel demarche to Mr. Kodjo Menan,
Secretary General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on
April 9. Menan listened carefully and said Togo would be
happy to support a U.S. candidate. He requested a diplomatic
note with particulars to pass on the Minister of Foreign
Affairs. (Note. Menan was just named as Togo's ambassador to
the United Nations and, assuming he takes his post in time,
would be the individual casting Togo's vote. End Note.)
