the potential Preparatory Committee (Prep Com) meeting with
Marina Rozic, Head of the NATO Department at the Croatian
Foreign Ministry. Rozic said she would pass on to the
Croatian Mission to NATO before September 23 our request that
consideration of any future Prep Com meetings be postponed
until at least after the October 15 Geneva Conference,
especially in light of the agreement that there can be "no
business as usual" in the NATO-Russia relationship.
