E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: PREL, PGOV, IS, IR, AF, PK, RO SUBJECT: ROMANIAN REACTION TO SEPTEMBER GYMNICH

REF: PRE-GYMNICH INSTRUCTIONS/TALKING POINTS FROM INTELLIPEDIA

1. (SBU) New POLCOUNS and POLOFF delivered REF non-paper September 3 to Cristian Olimid, MFA Director for EU External Relations. Olimid responded that the talking points were a bit late to be incorporated into FM Diaconescu's briefing papers. (n.b. Diaconescu had departed a day earlier for bilateral meetings in The Hague.) However, he expressed his appreciation for the regular sharing of U.S. views on GAERC and Gymnich meetings, as they helped Romania to better prepare its positions. Olimid requested that future instructions/talking points be delivered sooner so that U.S. input could be taken fully into consideration in briefing the Minister. He did not provide any substantive feedback on the talking points. GITENSTEIN
