POOL REPORT ON THE
MEETING OF THE PRESIDENT
WITH THE SOVIET CHARGE
I was in the Roosevelt Room with the Soviet Charge,
whose name is correct on the handout you have. Secretary
Kissinger was in there, too. It was very hard to hear, but
as we came in, they seemed to be talking about Ambassador
Dobrynin and one of the things that the President said
was something about 1962, "He seems to go on and on."
Then the Chargé said, "He must have been 17 or something. "
The President said, "Give the Ambassador my
best. He looks so rugged.' And now you will be happy
with these following blanks. The Chargé said, "Of course
he will be very pleased to" -- blank.
And then the President says, "I hope that
Mr. Brezhnev will" blank "very soon."
And then the Charge said, "He is in the Crimea."
And the President said, "I was in 1958 or 1959. When was the
trade fair?", as we were ushered out.
