1. (U) Poloff delivered ref A talking points to Royal
Government of Bhutan (RGOB) First Secretary Karma Choeda on
December 7, reinforcing the USG desire that the RGOB abstain
from voting to continue the mandate for the three UN

raise the issue with officials in Thimphu and advised USUN
communicate directly with the Bhutanese Mission in NY for
faster results.
