SUBJECT: DJIBOUTI - SUDAN STRATEGY DEMARCHE

REF: 09 STATE 109669

Ambassador briefed Djibouti's Acting Foreign Minister Ahmed Ali
Silay on the Sudan strategy released by the Department Oct. 19
(reftel), and provided a copy of the publication " Sudan: A
Critical Moment, A Comprehensive Approach." The Minister and his
staff took careful note of the points and expressed support for USG
goals of ending conflict in Darfur, implementing the CPA, and
ensuring that Sudan does not become a haven for terrorists. To
this end, they welcomed USG engagement with Khartoum, and use of
incentives and disincentives to ensure progress.
