(C) Poloff delivered reftel points to Pierre Gillon, Desk
Officer for Iran of the Belgian Ministry of Foreign Affairs
(MFA),on January 5. Gillon said that he would take note of
the information, and pass it on to his colleagues in Tehran.
The MFA has recently negotiated the upcoming release of three
citizens who are being held by the Government in Iran.
Gillon said that Belgium obtained their anticipated release
by treating the matter as a purely consular one and also by
maintaining silence with the media. But as the three
Belgians have not yet been released by Iran, he said that he
could not say more at this stage, adding that he might be
able to talk further once they are safe on Belgian soil.
