Conversation with Anatol Dobrynin, Ambassador of USSR 11/14/71 11:30 a. m. HAK Hello, Anatol. DOBRYNIN Hello, Henry. You shouldn't work Saturday and Sunday after a week of very hard work. HAK I have to see that no one does anything while my back is turned. Where were you yesterday? DOBRYNIN Everything is quiet on our front so I decided to go outside Washington. Y gu see how I trust you? I paraphrase what you have on your coins, "In Henry I trust". HAK Two things Anatol I wanted you to know. Unexpectedly your compatriot, Victor Lewis, showed up here after all. DOBRYNIN He had meetings in New York only. HAK He came here. I saw him for a half hour. I made very clear to him that my dealings are with you. I think that what he would have liked was for me to tell him something that he could bring back. You can rest assured I told him nothing. He just indicated that if we wanted to pass anything urgently he was a good person to do it. I made clear to him that I was extremely satisfied with present arrangements and it would confuse matters. He asked me about China. I talked to him only if you read my backgrounders-- - I said nothing to him I have not said to the press. I gave him no messages. DOBRYNIN I understand. HAK The only reason I tell you is because I want you to be aware-. to know. DOBRYNIN Thank you. HAK And only because he has that reputation. I don't even know
