Viewing cable 08TOKYO2757, DEMARCHE DELIVERED: IRAN SPECIFIC EXPORT CONTROL

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.

Discussing cables

1.  (SBU)  On October 2, EconOff delivered points contained 
in ref to Ministry of Foreign Affairs Export Controls Deputy 
Director Shinichi Sato and Ministry of Economy, Trade and 
Industry Export Controls Deputy Director Atsushi Tanizawa. 
 
2. (SBU) Sato expressed thanks for the non-paper.  Tanizawa 
noted the GOJ's continued deep concern with front companies, 
and that it regularly meets with industry to encourage 
vigilance.  He provided EmbOff a Japanese language copy of 
the Ministry's guidance for industry, which has many of the 
same "red flag" points listed in the demarche.  Tanizawa said 
METI will redouble efforts to keep industry officials aware 
of ongoing concerns regarding Iran's illicit programs.
