requires the addition of water. Colomobia Air Force has a C-130.1 lis standing by, and
I !wOUld like to call him back ASAP with a response to this offer.

Mexico: Mexico's Civil Protection Office (part of the Sec. of Govemment) has officially offered
four senior disaster response experts to work with NORTHCOM Officials in the U.S. We have
been informed byl NORTHCOM that they would like to accept this offer of
assistance. Claire 810ng from FE~A has been kept in the loop. Six names were sent to us along
with information on their skills/abilities but I believe NORTHCOM has accepted only four. Two of
the six don't have visas. Our military groups and agencies will be happy to assist with all
arrangements. .

SEDENA has offered 15 semi trailers of supplies, which FEMA has approved for use in Dallas,
per 2334 9/6 email from! ~NORTHCOM. At a 12009/6 coordination meeting
between AMEMB MX City ODC and EDENA to discuss further details of SEDENA assistance
offer, SEDENA informed ODC members that their offer includes not just the 15 semi trailers of
supplies but additionally two full field kitchen sets capable of feeding 7000 p~e als a day
for 20 days, and water purification units. The Secretary of National Defense, has
authorized the Mexican soldiers accompanying/operating this equipment to remain In t e US for
the duration of the 20 days of supplies they would bring. This equipment would also provide the
Mexicans self-sufficiency in lodging and feeding. ODC members informed SEOENA that only the
15 truckloads of supplies have been accepted, by FEMA at this time. NORTHCOM has requested
FEMA determination if original SEDENA offer of 15 truckloads of supplies (or the expanded
SEDENA offer if accepted) can be used in FEMAlRed Cross operations in San Antonio, TX vice
Dallas, TX to facilitate logistical coordination with Mexican forces. American Red Cross Hqtrs in
Washington DC is aware of SEDENA and political desires to work with MX as a partner in the
Strategic Partnership program etc. I IContacted
Operations Directors Sarah Gabel at Red Cross is Sarah Gabel and Deb Highland (202-303-
5526). Ms. Gabel will contacf ~o let him know if the MX donation can be worked into
the Katrina relief effort in the San Antonio I Dallas area. Once NORTHCOM receives word from
Red Cross. the offer can then be cleared with State TF. If Red Cross can't use the support,
NORTHCOM suggests the approved 15 truck.s to Dallas be used as previously planned as a
donation to the FEMA Katrina relief effort. NORTHCOM also offers the idea that the mobile
kitchen crew (though it would be without foodstuffs) could perhaps cook for a mil staging area
somewhere in the Katrina JOAwith the JTF.

Government of Peru: has offered to send 9 tons of canned tuna, and 3.5 tons of canned
sardines. They are prepared to send the aid via Peruvian Air Force. President Toledo will
making a public announcement of the offer.

@WHA
OPl would like our recommendation on Ambassadors to invite for the Hispanic Heritage Month event.
They have a list of Latin American countries that offered relief assistance following the hurricanes. Daniel's
email says 4-5 Ambassadors but I have warned him we might feel that more Ambassadors should be
invited. That being said, please look at the list below and let me know what you think is most appropriate.
Also note that Daniel mentions factoring in support for Iraq into our decision, I leave that up to you if you
think that is a relevant deciding factor.

John/Jed
Please verify that the list of countries from State below is correct when compared to your list of foreign aid
contributions. -

Please recommend 4-5 ambassadors from the listed countries to invite for the Hispanic Heritage event.
imagine Mexico should have one of those slots given their significant commitment.

Re Korea, if I recall in October we had a 30MM pledge

By November, it was broken down to:
10Mm to Bush Clinton
10MM to be raised by religious and small enterprises of which we thought 2MM had been handed over in two
checks to the USG
3.8 MM toUSG
1Mm to Korean Ameicans
.2 MM for transportation of Red Cross Donation
5MM to Red Cross

Now we know that the 2MM included one check to FORMEr president Bush (ie Bush Clinton) and the second was
never delivered. So we received nothing.

Also, just so I'm crear on Korea. There were a couple of different pledges. The pledge of $5 million from the

ROKG was fulfilled in the amount of 3.814. I think everyone ls clear on that one. Then there was a separate
pledge by private entities in the amount of $10 million (which is what GAO is asking about in 03). The Korea
desk advised that $1MM was presented to Bush I (on behalf of Bush-Clinton) by Chae Song Jo, and another 1MM
was presented to Embassy Seoul by Kim Jae Won (sp?). This is how we came to say that $2MM of the $10MM
pledged had been received. Now, it turns out that Embassy Seoul never received a check for $1 million by Kim
Jae Won??

Attached is your spreadsheet so we can finalize and send to GAO but since I don't know excelll wanted to run
this by you Peter. I cha~ged several things in the November 10 column but I realize they took place after 11/10.

1) Botswana. We originally had it as a Bush Clinton pledge on Exec Summary. It was to USG for 100K and we
received it 11/30/05

2) Fiji. We originally had it as a Bush Clinton pledge on Exec Summary. It was to USG for 30K which we
received 11/10

3) Country H. Correct pledge on November 10 was 10MM pledge, not 8MM. We thought that we had received
2MM. In actual fact 1MM went to Bush Clinton and the second pledge was never made concrete. So receipts
shoudl be 0 as of November 10. Also we were aware of the 3.8MM pledge. We received 3.814 on 11/30/05.

Can we make the changes to the November 10 column and perhaps add a new one as of Jan 6 with the
changes on sums received and pledges? .

Per sep e-mail am sending you and rest of Katrina WG a new Exec Summary to look over.

1. Polcouns, on 9/11, informed Daul Matute, the Foreign Ministry's Director of Security
and Defense Affairs (and Peru's coordinator for Hurricane Katrina assistance) of the USG's
acceptance at this time of Peru's offer to provide 1600 bandages, and of its continuing
review of Peru's other offers as part of our ongoing needs assessment (Ref A). Matute
said that he would contact the OFDA coordinator provided in Ref A, but noted that while
Peru's initial offer was for 1600 bandages (Ref C), it subsequently increased this offer
to 2760 elastic bandages. (4x5 yards) and 1850 elastic bandages ,I
(6xS yards) (Ref B). Polcouns recommended that Matute raise this issue directly with the
OFDA coordinator.

2. Matute is Peru's main point of contact for coordinating technical and logistical
details. He speaks fluent English.

Subject: RE: Peruvian Kabina Donation

Joaquin,

This is what appears to have happened:

• State 163366 accepted phase I of Peru's offer (the bandages) and said the rest of the offer was under consideration
• State 163428 said that the rest of the offer was under consideration \
• State 174131 was just a general response to the GOP's condolence message.

Per the notes that are in the matrix, the rest of the offer was declined on W10 by FEMA. The notes mentions that 163366
contains language declining the offer. It does not. It appears that we need to send another cable formally declining the
rest of their offer. Agree?

1. Polcouns, on'9/11, informed Daul Matute, the Foreign Ministry'S Director of Security
and Defense Affairs (and Peru's coordinator for Hurricane Katrina assistance) of the USG's
acceptance' at this time of Peru's offer to provide 1600 bandages, and of its continuing
review of Peru's other offers as part of our ongoing needs assessment (Ref A). Matute
said that he would contact the OFDA coordinator provided in Ref A, but noted that while
Peru's initial offer was for 1600 bandages (Ref C), it subsequently increased this offer
to 2760 elastic bandages (4x5 yards) and 1850 elastic bandages
(6x5 yards) (Ref B). Polcouns recommended that Matute raise this issue directly with the
OFDA coordinator. '

2. Matute is Peru's main point of contact for coordinating technical and logistical
details. He speaks fluent English.

The matrix shows Peru's donation to be health and medical services. While it is true they have offered some
medical assistance (a few doctors and bandages), the majority of the assistance offered is food, portable shelter
and clothing items. Our concern is to have this offer appropriately vetted so we may respond to the GOP. Many

This was covered in STATE 164963 as far as what post should do. Awaiting decision on disposition
of donations collected by Dept. so cannot answer that part. If post follows procedure, donation will
ultimately be made to appropriate party in US as designated by the Department.

(PIs reply acknowledging receipt)

I called at S request responding to his call last night. He noted offer of 80-100 doctors
specializing in disaster aid. He said he had just met with AMBStruble who thought we
would respond soon. He said he did not want to add to congestion or inconvenience and
understood that the offer had to be coordinated carefully with needs on the ground. Of
course he express~d his solidarity with us.
I thanked him very much and said we would work through our ambassador to respond.
I also added that we would work through' staffs to find time when-S and he could meet at
UNGA. He agreed and said a mtg in Washington might afford more time.
