Mr. Kissinger/Yugoslav Ambassador
September 18, 1970 12 noon
jlj
K: Mr. Ambassador
Y: Hello, 2 Yes, speaking.
K: You and I are going steady these days. I am sitting here with Mr.
Haldeman, the President's assistant, and we are going over the schedule
for the 50th time. We were wondering if we had any information for our
advance party who will be calling in.
Y: The way of getting decisions now is complicated because there are
many people who have to be consulted.
K: I thought XIXX it was socialist countries who had centralized [decision
making].
Y: There are various types of socialist countries.
K:
[I was just wondering if you had heard anything from your
people about trip arrangements as our advance party is in there now. ]
Y: Do you have any word. I do not expect any serious complications.
I have been told that we are working very hard. They told me that as
soon as they had a decision they would let me know.
K: We would like a crack at the decision making too. Well, our advance
party will not agree to anything until they have talked to us here.
Y: Some of my people told me that your people have gone into Zagreb
all ready.
K: They have gone in today. I warned you. It won't be the first time
you have been invaded.
Y: In fact I was told that they had gone into Zagreb yesterday or the day
before. XXX I was told there were a bunch of them in there.
K: Who told you that. I'll bet it was Sonnenfeldt
Y: If you wait for a few minutes I will ask Mr. Brunner (sounded like).
He is the one that told me. If you hold on I will check with him. [leaves
phone and then comes back. ] Yesterday the desk officer called and told
Mr. Brunner this and then today Mr. Brunner checked with Hal Sonnenfeldt
and confirmed it. They entered Zagreb - no wait - he says not Zagreb -
says Yugoslavia.
