REF: SECSTATE 134271
1. (SBU) In an October 2 meeting, we delivered reftel
demarche to MFA New Threats and Challenges Senior Counselor
Vladimir Prokhorov. Prokhorov expressed dismay over the
flight of Riza Altun and disappointment with the lack of
cooperation between France and Austria. He told us that he
would pass the information to his law enforcement colleagues,
and asked to be kept informed of any developments.
2. (SBU) Prokhorov assured us that the GOR sees cooperation
against terrorism as one of the highlights of our bilateral
relationship, and welcomes increased cooperation on customs
and border controls and tracking financial transactions. He
reiterated that the GOR is anxiously awaiting dates for the
