P: I know. Don't worry. We aren't going to mark off one inch. K: XXXXXX We have this problem Mr. President. We are in the driver's seat in the Middle East. For example, I've got the Egyptians yesterday. The Russians you know sent 70 observers in and were screaming at the Egyp tians that they had to take them. Well I worked out with the Foreign Minister yesterday that they are going to send 40 of them back. The Egyptians are going to do it on their own SO we're not involved because 70 is just too many in a 300 man force. P: Yeah. Good. Don't worry, I'11 be very We'll take the line on Dobrynin. I know exactly what to do. K: I would not get into too great specifics on the Third core. P: No, that's our deal. No, my feeling is this. The Camp David exercise first is good P.R. It's look like something is going on that's a big daeal. Second, it's good from the stand point that Brezhnev will think we are giving him some attention (special). It doesn't cost us a damn thing and then we give them XXXXX nothing on the hard side. K: Exactly. P: Basically, it's software. But I would suggest that unless you hear otherwise why don't you tell him that you will fly to Camp David to see me at 5:00 here. That gives you the whole day there. Or is that a bad time. K: Maybe a little later. P: Fine. K: Together with him. P: Yeah, I could have the meeting with him from 5:00 to 6:00 and then you can have dinner or when do you want. K: Would it be good if we left at 6:00. and we'd be up at 6:30 and then I'd spend half an hour with you. That's too close to dinner. P: No, don't worry about that because I'11 probably I'11 probably have a chance to talk to you earlier anyway. K: I can do it at 5:00 if that's more convenient for you. - 6 -
