TELCON Hugh Sidey/Kissinger 11:07 am 3/11/70 S: I am doing a piece on Laos and I'm appalled by it, particularly the kinds of battles. It's a pretty empty thing. K: I'm appalled because it involves our VN position. We are not for a land war in Laos. S: That's my feeling too. K: It's a pretty cheap shot. Here's a negotiated settlement done on communist terms, if they won't xxxxxx keep that how will they keep their word in VN. It will effect negotiations in VN. They will not take Laos unless it's free. Do you want to come in? S: Sure, anytime. K: Come down at 11:30.
