K recalled pleasure he had of meeting the\nKing in Greece in 1962. King said to a certain extent XX he was a\nlittle disappointed with his trip here - mainly concerned with what\nis going to happen in his country. Thought it would be useful to discuss\nit with K and bring him up to date on how he sees the situation. King\nsaid all other heads of state saw Pres, including his PM when he was\nat the White House. K said difficulty was that Pres had to leave for Abilene\nand this jamed his schedule completely. K said Pres has high personal\nregard for the King. King said that does not help very much. K said\nit is not a question of Pres not wanting to help but the enormous difficulties\nhe would have if he injected himself into domestic affairs of country\nin SO visible a way. K said if King could find a way to come here\nSO private visit XX could be arranged, he (Pres) would be happy to talk with\nKing. King said he did not really think it would be considered in any\ncase\nan\nintervention in the affairs of his country\nif the President had seen him as he did all other heads of state. His\ncountry expected it as much as he did. King said he understands there is\na problem and he can arrange to come to US anytime that would suit the\nPresident. K said there is no objection on President's part to seeing\nKing quietly and if King could arrange a private visit to US an interview\ncould be arranged that has less formality. King asked if he could ask his\nAmb to keep in touch with K - he will let him know when he can come.\nK said fine.\nK said Pres will be away in the summer. King said\nperhaps he could arrange XXX it for end of May or June.\njm\nReproduced at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library\nDECLASSIFIED\nThis document has been reviewed pursuant to Executive Order 13526 and has been determined to be declassified."
