We shared reftel papers and discussed reftel points on
October 29 with Jorgen Gammelgaard, MFA Chief Advisor on
Counter-Terrorism. Gammelgaard stated that the Danish
government is unlikely to formally designate EDBI as a
terrorist entity, but would instead advise Danish firms on an
informal basis to avoid any dealing with EDBI and its
affiliates.
