TELCON President Nixon and HAK October 16, 1971 10:20 a. m. (Due to a misunderstanding of who was taking this conversation, the first half of the telcon was not recorded) HAK: They even called the newsmen. They said this to businessmen and then they called newsmen to Kosygin could repeat it. RN: This must drive Harriman up the wall. They didn't do it to past Administrations even the Eisenhower Administration--of course, that was a different period. HAK: This just says that the approach in the course of. in Washington was positively received. HAK: We had a long talk with the Middle East. RN: You consider this position very significant? HAK: Yes, I heard it said to me -- RN: Gromyko repeated it to me HAK: They say they will make the commitment that will not organize units and they will have a commitment on either an arms embargo or into Egypt and that this interim settlement should be stretched out and that will keep the Egyptians quiet until the end of the year. RN: Do you think the Israelis will squirm? HAK: We have to keep Sisco shut off because he is stirring things up to force settlement now and the Israelis won't do it. And Sisco's approach will leave the Russians there. That is the decision we have to make in December - we have to be tough on both sides. RN: We can't give the Israelis the moon. - more -
