    SUBJECT: FRENCH HEDGE ON COMPACT SIGNING EVENT

    REF: A. STATE 47346

         ¶B. STATE 50497

    Classified By: Political Minister-Counselor Josiah Rosenblatt, reasons
    1.4 (b) and (d).

    ¶1. (C) Poloff delivered Reftel points to MFA Senior Iraq Desk
    Officer Bernard Chappedelaine on April 16.  Chappedelaine
    noted that it might be difficult to secure French ministerial
    representation at the Compact signing event due to the French
    presidential elections; he predicted that the French would
    wait until shortly before the signing ceremony before
    finalizing their representational plans.  (Note: French
    ministers are curbing their foreign travel during the
    election period, and FM Douste-Blazy is personally engaged in
    campaigning for Nicolas Sarkozy.)  With respect to the EIB,
    Chappedelaine said the MFA would need to consult with the
    Finance Ministry before providing a substantive response.  On
    technical assistance, Chappedelaine objected that France has
    already offered to train up to 150 Iraqi civil servants per
    year.  Poloff countered that France should consider expanding
    its training program in order to demonstrate its support for
    Iraq and the Compact, and Chappedelaine reluctantly conceded
    that an expansion might be possible.

    ¶2. (C) On a more positive note, Chappedelaine said France may
    soon make a 500,000 euro donation to provide humanitarian
    assistance to Iraqi refugees, in part so as to lessen the
    burden the refugees impose on neighboring states (in
    particular, Jordan).

    ¶3. (C) Post will also deliver reftel points at the earliest
    possibility to Jean-Pierre Guinhut, France's
    Inter-Ministerial Coordinator for Iraq reconstruction.
