P: Looking at the Pakistan thing on arms embargo. Is it
or both?
K: Let me step to another phone. They are asking for an arms and an economic
embargo. We are trying to make it SO it at least the economic help can be
given.
P: (President had hung up. Re-called.) On the Pak thing, I got your paper.
K: The extreme people want to cut off everything. I think we can get enough
people -- on relief we have a fighting chance but arms itself is hopeless.
P: Are we for an arms embargo in Pakistan?
K: Just describe what we have done. In effect we have not sent any arms
after April 1 except those in depots and it's down to $3-5 million outstanding.
P: Ams purchased already.
K: Contracts signed and enroute. ? ? ? ? ?
.
P: What do we say about licenses in the future?
K: Fudge it. No license at this time.
P: We will evaluate as it goes along. We will have to take the heat on this.
K: It's not just but I know the problem.
P: They are doing it for reasons of screwing us up. They want Pakistan
to go down and screw us up. They want a way. Zeigler says they will get xxx
into Security Council seat. I will say the Secy. of State has stated our position.
K: Secy. of State said we will be guided by the majority.
and
P: Stated position and we will vote for admission of Mainland China/against
expulsion of Taiwan.
K: And on Security Council the Secy. statment speaks for itself.
Txx P: The majority will determine.
K: The ? ? ? ?
P: And Security Coundil determines. I think we have a veto.
