(SBU) On October 10, Polecoff delivered reftel points to

Organizations and Regional Cooperation Division. Kala
said he was unable to offer a response to the U.S.
points at the moment, but would deliver the message to
the First Committee members representing Estonia in New

discussion between the EU's non-nuclear and nuclear
states concerning this resolution. At the same time,
