SUBJECT: MOROCCAN RESPONSE TO THE CONVENTION ON
SUPPLEMENTARY COMPENSATION FOR NUCLEAR DAMAGE
REF: SECSTATE 54213
(SBU) On May 23, Econoff met with Bouchaib El Oumni, Office
of International Organizations, Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
to discuss reftel and to deliver a copy of the U.S. non-paper
concerning the Convention on Supplementary Compensation for
Nuclear Damage (CSC). El Oumni was well familiar with CSC,
having just come from the Moroccan Mission in Vienna. He
noted that Morocco had already ratified CSC, saw no reason to
expect less than full Moroccan support in urging other
nations to do the same, and pledged to share the U.S.
non-paper with other responsible government offices.
