K:
But when we begin discussing an agreement, then we want
site-by-site to discuss the principles of a "freeze. 11
D:
When they come to that one, they discuss freezing things,
as you mentioned before?
K:
We have this bureaucratic problem. In order to trigger this,
we would prefer an exchange of letters or something on the order of
a
Presidential statement to which you agree. Nobody knows about
this position yet.
D:
If you don't mind my repeating, it will be this way: first, as
of now, they will begin in principle. You will send a telegram to yours
and we will send one to ours.
K:
Not yet. My proposal is we have : to have some formal way to
trigger this.
D:
An exchange of letters or some statement?
K:
And as soon as that exchange/of letters is done, then we will
send the instructions.
D:
You gave the letter last time. We will give to you
Before
the last letter, both sides accept in principle.
K:
I understand. May I call you tonight when I get out there?
I can talk to the President on the plane.
D:
Today or tomorrow morning?
K:
About 11:00 Washington time.
D:
11:00 is all right with me.
K:
I will have discussed it with the President and
I
will
have
it in front of me.
D:
Instead of the "Soviet side, 11 say both sides.
K:
We will discuss it tonight.
D:
After 11:00?
K:
After 10:00.
D.
