Viewing cable 08PARIS888, FRANCE: G8 INITIATIVE ON TERRORIST ABUSE OF CHARITIES

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

SUBJECT: FRANCE: G8 INITIATIVE ON TERRORIST ABUSE OF CHARITIES 
 
REFS: A) STATE 46472 B) LAMBERT-BLIN/ROIGNAN EMAIL 
 
In follow-up to EEB ref B e-mail demarche on the terrorist abuse of 
charities initiative (subsequently received ref A), MFA 
Counterterrorism chief Louis Blin indicated the GOF had issues with 
the proposed U.S. action plan. Blin wouldn't elaborate, saying only 
that an interagency working group including the Foreign Affairs, 
Economy and Interior Ministries had prepared the French position and 
that FASS Christian Masset would be briefed prior to the Kyoto 
meeting.  We also highlighted the issue for DAS-equivalent for 
International Finance Cyrille Pierre on the margins of a May 5 
pull-aside between A/S Sullivan and Masset (where the topic was not 
raised).
