    E.O. 12958: N/A
    TAGS: EAID KDEM OECD UNGA PREL IC
    SUBJECT: Iceland: Press in New York for a position on Partnership
    for Democratic Governance

    Refs: A) State 108794

     B) State 131040

    ¶1.  (SBU) Summary:  Iceland's Ministry for Foreign Affairs remains
    noncommittal on Iceland's involvement in the OECD Partnership for
    Democratic Governance (PDG), despite repeated overtures from Post.
    Embassy believes this may be a result of uncertainty about the form
    and objectives of the PDG as well as the fact that Iceland's
    development aid policy is apparently under review by the Minister
    for Foreign Affairs.  Post suggests engagement on the margins of
    UNGA to clarify details of the PDG and press for Icelandic support.
    End Summary.

    ¶2.  (SBU) DCM, Econ Chief, and visiting EUR/NB Desk Officer
    presented Ref A points to the Director-General for External Trade
    and Economic Affairs at Iceland's Ministry for Foreign Affairs on
    August 21.  Earlier in the day, Pol Chief, EUR/NB DeskOff and Pol
    Intern made a similar presentation to the MFA's Counsellor for Human
    Rights and Democracy Issues.  Both were appreciative but
    noncommittal, saying they would raise the issue within the ministry.
     In follow-up contacts on September 14 and again on September 20 to
    present Ref B information, MFA contacts were similarly undecided
    about Iceland's participation.  Icelandic MFA's Minister-Counsellor
    for International Organization Affairs Nikulas Hannigan told Pol
    Chief on September 20 that the issue was "under review" at the
    ministry, but added on a separate topic that development aid was one
    of Iceland's main issues of interest for the upcoming UN General
    Assembly (UNGA).

    ¶3.  (SBU) Comment:  EmbOffs have learned separately that Minister
    for Foreign Affairs Gisladottir has asked for a review of Iceland's
    development aid policy, including an exploration of merging the
    Icelandic International Development Agency (ICEIDA) into the
    Ministry.  Currently, ICEIDA handles bilateral aid projects while
    the MFA has responsibility for multilateral donations.  We speculate
    that this review may be stalling commitments to other initiatives.

    ¶4.  (SBU) Comment, cont'd:  Post recommends engagement with the
    Icelandic missions at the UN and OECD to clarify thinking on the PDG
    as well as direct engagement with the Icelandic delegation at UNGA
    to help flush out MFA thinking on the issue.
