REF: SECSTATE 120282
1. (SBU) POLOFF on November 25 delivered REF demarche to
Carlos Torres, Counselor for Nuclear Non-Proliferation and
Disarmament within the MFA's DG for Strategic Affairs and
Terrorism, who stated that Spain intends to co-sponsor
Russia's resolution on the establishment of a nuclear fuel
reserve at Angarsk, Russia. Torres said that the only thing
that would prevent Spain from doing so would be if the EU
decided to oppose it, but he did not foresee that happening.
