I asked) I(OGI) to look at
this. He thinks the OGC review was well
done, and that the point that non-U.S.
firms would quickly move in to replace Gulf
in Angola is on the mark. Although the
changeover would not cost Angola much--if
any--hard currency, it would add stress to
an already troubled economic situation.
D/ALA, concurred.
The decision really hinges on what our
objective is in pursuing this. It does
present an opportunity to impress U.S.
businessmen that the policy is real, but I
doubt the move would have much effect on
Cuba. Also, Gulf would probably sell its
assets easily.
Referring the issue to Treasury is a
must, but is probably the kiss of death for
the proposal--OGI doubts Treasury will ao
along.
