SUBJECT:  GVN ANNOUNCES PLANS TO SIGN IAEA ADDITIONAL PROTOCOL 
 
REF: HANOI 2102 
 
1. (SBU) Summary and Comment:  On December 4, MFA Department of 
International Organizations Acting Director General Le Hoai Trung 
met with representatives of the diplomatic community to announce 
State President Nguyen Minh Triet's decision that Vietnam will sign 
the IAEA Additional Protocol (AP).  The announcement comes in the 
run-up to IAEA Director General Mohamed ElBaradei's planned December 
9 visit to Vietnam to review the country's cooperation with that 
agency.  As Trung's presentation made clear, while the announcement 
is an important first step, the road to ultimate ratification of the 
AP could be fairly long as the GVN must first negotiate a final 
agreement with the IAEA and then satisfy domestic legal, technical 
and political requirements prior to gaining the National Assembly's 
approval.  End Summary and Comment. 
 
2. (SBU) Trung explained that President Triet's decision was made on 
November 15, based upon a positive recommendation by Prime Minister 
Nguyen Tan Dzung.  With the signing of the AP, Vietnam will have 
acceded to all international conventions concerning weapons of mass 
destruction, including the Chemical Weapons Convention, the 
Biological Weapons Convention, the Treaty on Non-Proliferation of 
Nuclear Weapons and the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.  The 
decision to proceed with the signing of the AP shows "the GVN's 
consistent policy in support of peace and disarmament, as well as 
Vietnam's commitment as a member of the United Nations to strengthen 
peace and security," said Trung. 
 
GVN Still Needs to Negotiate AP Terms 
------------------------------------- 
 
3. (SBU) Trung outlined the next steps for the GVN following the 
public announcement of the decision, which is scheduled for December 
5.  After the GVN formally informs Director General ElBaradei of the 
GVN's intent to sign the AP, he will work with the GVN to prepare an 
agreement based on the IAEA's model AP.  Trung said this would 
involve "basically filling in the name of the country."  When the 
final terms of the AP are reached, the IAEA Board of Governors 
reviews the document and, if approved, authorizes DG ElBaradei to 
sign on behalf of the IAEA.  Trung said the GVN hopes the AP can be 
submitted to the Board of Governors at its March 2007 session, but 
acknowledged there might not be enough time between now and then to 
work out all issues. 
 
Domestic Concerns Will Complicate a Final AP Text 
--------------------------------------------- ---- 
 
4. (SBU) The GVN also faces the task of preparing all necessary 
conditions for eventual ratification of the AP.  Trung noted that of 
the 109 AP signatories, only 70 have ratified the agreement.  He 
declined to estimate when ratification might take place.  Also, the 
GVN needs to work with the IAEA to resolve a number of technical 
issues.  He cited the treatment of the Dalat nuclear research 
facility, which he referred to as a "double safeguarded facility." 
This refers to an existing safeguard agreement with the IAEA, in 
addition to an IAEA technical cooperation agreement related to the 
nuclear fuel supplied by the Russian Federation for use at the Dalat 
facility.  While Vietnam's use of nuclear material for peaceful 
purposes is still minimal, according to Trung, there are questions 
about whether Dalat will be subject to an inspection regime that 
could obstruct normal commercial and research activities.  He also 
said the decision will affect an important aspect of Vietnam's 
domestic policy, and the AP will require meticulous, careful 
preparation so as to address the concerns of critics within the GVN 
who question the need for the AP given the minimal level of 
Vietnam's nuclear activities and the "double safeguarding" already 
in place regarding the Dalat facility. 
 
5. (SBU) Prior to ratification, GVN agencies will also have the task 
of developing a technical and legal basis for implementing the AP. 
Trung cited the GVN's experience with the Chemical Weapons 
Convention, in which case it was necessary to adopt a separate law 
to cover aspects not addressed in the Criminal Code.  He also said 
implementation of the AP and related legislation must not contradict 
Vietnam's possible future use of nuclear power for civilian 
purposes.
