TELCON
Mr. T. Anthony K. Elliott (British Embassy)
Mr. Kissinger
5:30 P.M., 1-10-70
K said I was calling the Ambassador on a personal basis on behalf
of the President. I don't want to throw lots of machinery in
motion. The President may call the Prime Minister tomorrow about
Nigeria. We have no specific proposal. He just wants to discuss
the situation. E asked if he would be calling at any particular
time. K said we have not set a time. The President wants to
discuss the situation and what steps could be taken by both
governments either separately or together. E asked again if K
could give him any idea of the time. K said I am not 100% sure
that he will do it. I would think it would be your afternoon
between 4 and 10. It would be a personal communication. K said
you should not discuss it with anyone but the Prime Minister.
Note: President Nixon called the British Prime Minister at
approximately 6:15 P.M. EST.
