K: Jim?
C: Henry.
K: Can you hear me now?
C: Yes, very well.
K: Good. I have your message and I wanted to tell you I am dictating
an assessment of the situation as we see it and I will send it to you.
We are going along with about two -this rds of what you have done in
Athens. We have had approaches from the Soviets.
C: So have we.
K: We don't want to legitimize a situation where they
We will
C ontinue recognizing the existing government.
C: Well, Henry, hold on . There is a late development. Makarios
has asked for permission to evacuate to our base area. We have done this
and we are now thinkg of flying him to our carrier. So we' 'll have
to go slow on legitimizing.
K: XX If that is the case, we don't want to have him leading an outside
movement asn ask for Soviet help.
C: Right. What should we do with him? He may want to come here.

asked to be evacuated. And I will say my view is that Greece should
the intervention and I will go on to say the Ambassador is informing
the Greek Government that it the Xxxxx government officials of the
Cyprus National Guard will be replaced at the earlies moment.
K: Wait, I think we should stop short on that.
C: It would reduce tension in the area.
K: Once we know there is a clear outcome,
fine.
But
if
there is a civil war we would be getting involved.
