N:
That is all that matters is that you know we can do everything--
I can do everything here that I could do in Washington.
K:
You remember we had the same problem when the Mid East war started
--you were in Key Biscayne and we advised strongly not to move.
N:
In the Mid East we had basically interests that were well
K: We didn't want to exacerbate the situation and there wasn't anything
you could do in Washington that you couldn't do in Key Biscayne--
But let's see how the Greeks react, Mr. President. There is still
a 10% chance that this thing will be settled by Monday.
N: How?
K: Well, if the Greeks accept Clerities as a solution and if they --and if
the Greeks and Turks then meet in London, I think we could get a ceasefire
N: And you don't want to go to the UN because that'11 get the Russians in it.
K: Well we can go to the UN in a few hours--its the middle night.
N: Oh, I know, I know.
K: But it won't contribute much--we can do it tomorrow morning.
N: Well as you know Henry, there is always a damn symbolism in the UN
--you and I both know what a mine field it is, but I don't know.
K: The UN is going to meet again tomorrow morning, Mr President. They
met on Cyprus today.
N: Yep. Security Council
K: Yeh. I think to call them in the middle of the night when neither of the
parties involved
N
No, no, no. That's the point, I just -- it is --
K: I would wait until tomorrow morning on the UN
N:
Just 80 we can avoid the appaarance that we are not completely on top of it
and I think we certainly are--now you are planning to go back tomorrow
afternoon, W
