Dept. of State letter, Aug. 10, 1972

Italy's Foreign Minister has handed the US and UK
Ambassadors a note on Venezia Giulia saying that he hopes
that many Italian towns besides Pole on the west coast of
Istria will also be put under AMG. In general, Italy
feels that all towns west of the main national highway
between Trieste and Pola, which are all entirely Italian,
should be in the Allied zone. Italy also wants various
cuarentees for the Italians living enst of the demarcation
line, especially those in Fiume.
French Zone of Occupation in Germany. Winant has
received from Massigli a memorandum of disiderata in con-
nection with the French zone of occupation in Germany. It
provides that the boundaries now set for the French zone
represent a provisional solution which should later be
revised. It also specifies the areas to be contributed
from the British and US zones and declares that the de-
ployment of French forces imultaneously on both banks of
the Rhine are to take place as soon as possible. Winant
has already told Massigli that he personally feels we
should not now try to foresee the conditions of occupation
and requirements of occupational forces as they may exist
a year hence.
Allied Meetings in Vienna. Erhardt transmits the
findings, conclusions and recommendations of General
Flory's mission to Vienna. This report is prefaced with
remerks regarding the friendliness and cooperation shown
officers and enlisted men of the American mission by
members of the Red Army. General Flory's officers who
had hnd previous dealinga with Soviet officers agreed
that the cordiality and cooperation experienced during
the mission to Vienna was almost without precedent. Only
two comments tere made by Soviet representatives in reply
to direct questions from the US group: the Soviets
believe that a uniform control throughout Austria over
all economic end political life is desirable and worth
great efforts to achieve; they also believe B. certain
freedom of movement throughout the city including access
to the docks and other exclusive facilities is most
desirable.
