DADIS REFUSES TO RENOUNCE CANDIDACY BY DEADLINE 
--------------------------------------------- -----------

1. (SBU) The junta leader released a note through the
Guinean Foreign Ministry to the Economic Community of
West African States (ECOWAS) and the African Union (AU).
In the message, Dadis refused to renounce in writing
that he would run for president in 2010. Dadis noted he
will discuss the issue with Burkina Faso President
Compaor in coming weeks, effectively postponing
resolution of the issue. (MGGV01/Embassy Conakry

2. (SBU) ECOWAS President Chambas affirmed the next
step is for Compaor to visit Guinea or host the parties
in Ouagadougou. Chambas predicted the AU Peace and
Security Committee will support ECOWAS's October 17
Communiqu recommendation to place weapons sanctions on
Guinea. (MGGV01/Embassy Abuja telcon)

3. (SBU) There are rumors of threats to the Chinese
Ambassador after media reports highlighted an alleged $7
billion Chinese investment in Guinea's mining sector.
