1. (S) We delivered reftel paper to MFA Nonproliferation and
Disarmament Department Head Serhan Yigit on February 23.
Yigit said he understood the seriousness of our concerns and
agreed to relay the information regarding the Turkish firms
to relevant government agencies in order to look into these
possible transactions. He provided assurances that the GoT
will not allow any transaction that is in violation of UNSCR
resolutions or Turkish laws and agreed to follow up in the
near future once the GoT interagency has had an opportunity
to review the information and look into the transactions.
