On November 12, Pol/Mil Officer delivered reftel demarche to 
Mr. Der Kogda, Director of Multilateral Affairs at the 
Ministry of Foreign Affairs. 
 
Pol/Mil officer expressed our interest in three important 
country-specific human rights resolutions coming up at the UN 
on Iran, Burma, and DPRK. We explained that we would like AF 
countries as well as other host governments to vote "no" on 
the upcoming no-action votes on Iran and Burma and "yes" on 
the substantive resolutions. Kogda said he would share our 
concerns about the upcoming votes with the Burkinabe Foreign 
Ministry as well as its Mission in New York.
