Amb. Dobrynin/Mr. Kissinger
1:13 p.m., August 22, 1972
AD:
(cont'd) situation because we are really in exactly the same
situation and these assurances from both sides that they will meet
as soon as possible
I mean, I will try to find out.
HK:
Well, see whether you can find some
AD:
But they specifically mentioned to me that both sides take obligation
to speed up the process. This I could give you assurance right now.
HK:
Oh, you can. Well, I haven't heard that.
AD:
No, I can but I am not prepared to give any date because this is rather
but this I could give you.
HK:
Yeh.
AD:
Because they said it. Otherwise, this is what I discussed really
with you I really thought it in the beginning how we will break
this deadlock because otherwise it will be going, going and going.
But once it is decided, you will be in Moscow. You will speak with
Brezhnev there and SO I think it is rather high level assurances.
HK:
That's right.
AD:
It was because of this same bureaucrat in State Department wants
to have a precise date, that doesn't seem really such a good idea

HK:
I just told you what the immediate reaction
AD:
No, I know. I wasn't surprised about their reactions because it is
exactly what they are doing for two years.
HK:
Well, let me see what can be done.
AD:
Well, on this I will try to check but this this kind of assurances that
both sides take an obligation to speed up this I could give you and then
you will be in Moscow you may repeat it while you will be speak with
our people.that we agreed with this,
it as soon as possible. I
am standing on this statement.
HK:
Yeah. Well, we will probably - I haven't had a chance to talk to the
President yet.
