1. (SBU) Poloff delivered the message in reftel on October 2
to Roland Vock, Head of the Export Controls Sanctions Policy
Division of the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs
(SECO). Vock commented that UNSCR 1835 reaffirmed the
requirements of the previous sanctions UNSCRs on Iran, but
did not include any new requirements. He emphasized that
SECO already has taken the necessary steps to implement
UNSCRs 1737, 1747, and 1803 on Iran, saying the GOS takes its
responsibilities in this area very seriously.
