SUBJECT: FM BAN KI-MOON CONVEYS CONGRATULATIONS ON KILLING 
OF ZARQAWI 
 
(SBU)  Foreign Minister Ban Ki-Moon, during a June 9 meeting 
with Washington DC Mayor Anthony Williams, asked the 
Ambassador to convey to Secretary Rice -- and through her, to 
the U.S. military and all members of the Iraqi coalition -- 
Korea's congratulations on the killing of Abu Musab 
al-Zarqawi.  Ban noted that the entire international 
community, Korea's Zaytun unit, and the family of former 
South Korean hostage Kim Sun-il (beheaded by Zarqawi in June 
2004) can breathe a sigh of relief.  He underscored Korea's 
continued solidarity with the Untied States in the war on 
terror.
