TELCON
William Sullivan
Mr. Kissinger
7-15-69
9:30 AM
S said he was calling on business of what Cabot says in private session -
does not know from whom they came but he has a couple of suggestions
that K made. K said one point which seemed inconsistent concerned
the first time he talks about withdrawal. S said he did not catch that
and K is entirely correct and that will be put in. K said the other point
derives from something the President said to K that we should not push
a lot of different kinds of elections right now. S asked if K had read what
Thieu said in backgrounder and K said no. Ksaid that he thought
we could meet the President's point by keep ing that instruction
as a response - that we do not volunteer it. S said o.k. - he has no
strong feeling. S said he knows Thieu wants to keep it as vague as
possible. K said we could fudge what we said.
S said he did not like
the word control in connection with rate of withdrawal - suggested the
word influence. K agreed.
K asked whether they have agreed to a meeting yet. S said he does not
know - he has not heard from Paris yet.
