1. (SBU) On March 4 we delivered reftel talking points to
Juan Salas, MFA UNSC desk officer. Salas said he would
forward the information to New York since, as a UNSC member,
Costa Rica may play a role in decisions made regarding the
possible disbanding of INMEE and imposing sanctions.

position or intended actions on these issues. We will follow
up as needed.
