FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SEPTEMBER 27, 1975
OFFICE OF THE WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY
THE WHITE HOUSE
PRESS BRIEFING
OF
HENRY A. KISSINGER
SECRETARY OF STATE
FOLLOWING THE PRESIDENT'S MEETING WITH
JEAN SAUVAGNARGUES
FOREIGN MINISTER OF FRANCE
THE SOUTH LAWN
10:55 A.M. EDT
SECRETARY KISSINGER: We are delighted by the
visit of the Foreign Minister who had a very good, very
friendly talk with the President.
The relations between France and the United
States are symbolized by these frank and very fruitful
exchanges in which, keeping in mind, of course, the
necessities of each country, nevertheless we exchange
ideas in a spirit of friendship and cooperation.
We are pursuing this on a whole range of issues
which we discussed -- the dialogue between producers and
consumers, the Middle East, European matters, NATO -- and
we will continue these exchanges over the months ahead.
Of course, I will see the Foreign Minister again
this afternoon. We were very pleased with the visit and
we found it very constructive, and the atmosphere was very
friendly.
Q
May I ask one question? Mr. Secretary,
can you give us some comment, sir, on the decision by the
OPEC countries in Vienna to raise prices 10 percent?
SECRETARY KISSINGER: We haven't studied it.
It seems to be a middle line between those who wanted to do
nothing and those who wanted to do very much and apparently
it is also a freeze for nearly a year, which is important.
Q
Along that line, sir, would you consider
this a favorable step?
SECRETARY KISSINGER: Not as much as we wanted,
but better than it could have been.
I had better stay with the Foreign Minister.
THE PRESS: Thank you.
END (AT 10:59 A.M. EDT)
