CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
OFFICE OF NATIONAL ESTIMATES
3 August 1951
Memorandum for the Director of Central Intelligence
Subject: The Harriman Mission
After more than two weeks of complex and delicate
discussions with both Iranians and British, Averell Harriman
has succeeded in arranging a meeting between the two govern-
ments for the purpose of re-opening oil negotiations. The
agreement to re-open negotiations is based on a number of
important concessions by both sides.
The Iranian Government:
a.
Agreed to negotiate with the British Government,
acting as representatives for AIOC, rather than
directly with AIOC.
b.
Agreed to adopt a more cooperative and less ob-
structive attitude toward British AIOC personnel
at Abadan in order to reduce tension in the area.
C.
Avoided all mention of the 9-point nationalization
law which calls for the eviction of AIOC from Iran
and the expropriation of all oil installations in
southern Iran.
