(d), and (h). 
 
¶1. (S/NF) MFA U/S Abdullah Rashed al-Noaimi expressed his 
appreciation to Charge December 27 for the close and 
effective coordination to block ref A shipment of missile 
related equipment to Iran.   Abdullah Rashed confirmed that 
the German Embassy had submitted a diplomatic note formally 
requesting return of the shipment to Germany.  He added that 
the Germans and Dubai State Security were in direct 
coordination to bring this about, but did not know the 
modalities. 
 
¶2. (S/NF) The UAEG, upon determining that the equipment in 
the container had originated in Germany, contacted the 
Germans directly and urged them to request return of the 
shipment.  We do not know whether SSO informed the Germans 
that the orginal tip off had come from us.  This mission has 
had no contact with the German Embassy on this matter.
