TELCON
Otis Chandler/Mr. Kissinger
8:05 p. m. , November 29, 1971
K:
I am calling you about the December 6 date. The difficulty is
that is the day that Trudeau is coming to Washington. I had it
nearly arranged to come out and then the only convenient date
for the two heads of government in December turned out to be
next Monday.
C:
Sure, sure.
K:
If there is anything the Times or the Chandler family wants --
C:
Your schedule must be very busy.
K:
I was going to say given advance warning but in this case, even
advance warning wouldn't have helped.
C:
I was going to call you a long time ago and didn't and then I
decided maybe by chance you might be free.
K:
In this case it literally would have made no difference. This
meeting with Trudeau finally gelled.
C:
What country is President Nixon not going to meet with?
K:
I am going to handle Princess Grace.
C:
Yes, and you will do well. You prefer that to Prime Minister
Golda Meir?
K:
I almost think SO.
C:
I think your son wasn't SO far off.
K:
Ron Ziegler called my son tonight and told him we announced the
Peking trip today. His first question was, "When is it? 11
C:
You will be busy with these trips. He is meeting with everybody.
K:
We have to show that our allies will be seriously consulted.
C:
Your reports any more credible about the India/Pakistan situation?
We can't send anyone in; we can't find out what the hell is going on?
