What are they going to do with you?\nK:\nThey're going to confirm me again.\nD:\nThey have not given it up? Henry, about 1:00 today so it's\nsettled.\nK:\nFine.\nD:\nThe second thing I would like to ask you the following question.\nK:\nBut I frankly don't think that Fulbright knows about it yet because\nhe asked me yesterday for advise on what he should say to you.\nD:\nHe knows.\nK:\nOK fine.\nD:\nHe knows because we mentioned to him that we are going to switch\nit. Yesterday I spoke with him. His wife called my wife SO that was a\nconfirmation again SO he knows that there is really no problem. The\nquestion now what is really Henry. I received a message and I would like\nyour assistance in this. Message from Brezhnev to President and\nBrezhnev asked me to deliver it personally to the President. I feel\nits rather important in general in the sense it was my impression\nyesterday there was a meeting rather important in Moscow and they\nwould like so to speak to know his opinion right away about our relations\nwhich they feel are rather\nnow. And a rather a crisis of\nconfidence which is more or less on the level of the Brezhnev and President\nSo as you know its very unpleasant talk for me because I spent SO much\ntime and energy to on the contrary to keep it up not down SO I think it\nmay be useful really for me to deliver the message. There are some\ncontrary\nbut they are not important enought.\nK:\nCan I see that message first. I think it will be helpful to both of us."
