Pol-Econ Officer delivered Ref A message urging Portugal's 
support for Somalia to the Director of Disarmament and 
Security Affairs Joao Corte-Real as well as the MFA's Deputy 
EU Correspondent Ana Filomena Rocha.  Both responded that, at 
this time, Portugal will not be able to provide bilateral 
assistance to Somalia given current resource constraints. 
They noted, however, that Portugal fully supports the 
European Union's efforts to provide assistance using 
centralized funding if the African Union can coordinate a 
timeline and concrete assistance mission.  Whatever support 
the EU elects to offer Somalia will have Portugal's full 
backing.
