    "ocrText": "SANITIZED COPY\nTelecon\nSecretary Rogers\n9/14/70 12:15 p. m.\nR: I have two or three things. First, on the President's trip:\nWhen is the announcement?\nK: He is notv thinking of doing it tomorrow. As soon as they tell\nus the times, we will tell it to Hillenbrand and from then on handle it\nthrough your channels.\nR: I think it's important in the announcing it to stress that it's\nnot related to the present crisis. Is it going to be played that way.\nI think we've got to be sure it doesn't build up tentions in the area.\nSay we've had this in mind for some time and had the invitations ex-\ntended. Any way we do it it will be construed by the press as an effort\nto strengthen our hand in the Middle East.\nK:\nWhen we get a draft we'll run it by you.\nR: Okay. Still haven't heard from the Yugoslavs?\nK: Yes, we just have, but they make the same point you do.\nR: I see. On the meeting with Golda Meir, I have talked with the\nPresident about this twice. He thought we should meet together, that it\nshould be the President, you and I and Joe Sisco. I think it would avoid\nmisunderstandings if we were all to be there.\nK: When we have talked about this he thought XIX him, Golda Meir,\nSisco, one other person and Haig. I wasn't going to be there.\nR: If we were all there it would look like we were trying to make\nsomething of it; furthermore it's not a state visit. I don't see any reason\nfor you not to attend. Who will she have?\nK: Rabin. If she has Eban you should be there, but I think it will\njust be Rabin. What she really wants is to be along with him.\nR: Which is what we don't want.\nK: Exactly.\nR: Has she indicated who she will bring?\nK: No. I'm trying to stay out of this one. She has indicated she'd\nprefer to talk alone, but if not that, then she'd bring Rabin.\nDECLASSIFIED\n[p.1 of2]\nE.O. 12958, as amended, Sect 3.5\nSANITIZED COPY By Date 25 JUN"
