Stans/Kissinger

K: I want to talk to you a minute before the meeting with the President. He will
repeat it. You know we have presented these Russian licenses to fit in with
foreign policy situation. We said we would open it wide when conditions good
and they were when you were there. But they are taking a tough line on
South Asia. Can you calm down your eager beavers? Call it off so they notice
it but not forced to explain it?
S: Certainly will. Nothing is on.
K: It will open in a couple of months. It might not take that long but we want
them to notice something quickly.
S: I am seeing the President at 3:00. Your timing was absolutely right. They
had laid the red carpet for us. We are ready to go. I came back with an
ambivalent viewpoint there. Lots of opportunity there but a lot of reservation
on what should be done. We should make a constructive move or offer some
and tie it to something we want them to do.
K: Lke what?
S: I would offer to extend export-import credits provided that your lend-lease
tied (?). .
K: Now we can consider it on conditional basis if they behave better. We don't
exclude that. Will you sit on the other one? I have to run see the President
before his Head of State arrival.
