TELCON
Mrs. Javits/Kissinger
11:11 a. m.
11/26/71
J: Jack, because he's on the other side of that other Senator, and in NY -- we
thought we would put together a dinner for the new Ambassador from Peking. We
thought it would be xxxxxxx at home for a small dinner and reception. This was
before we heard Peking threatened to send troops into Egypt.
K: I don't believe that.
J: No further word on it. Make it in your honor if you agree.
K: Certainly. Anything you two decide I am almost automatically for.
J: You are too much. We have decided.
K: How will you put the invitation to the Chinese?
J: Extend an personal invitation from the Senator and myself to our home to
meet our friends and greeting them in an informal way.
K: As much as I would love to be invited by you I think there's a 40-60 chance
they will come. Less chance they will come if it's in my honor. I think SO.
I think they like me but will want to avoid a situation of having colluded with us.
J: Do you think this is valid? I thought it would soften the situation.
K: If you give a dinner, have the dinner small.
J: That's what we thought. We could keep it to 12.
K: If you want to give in my honor, I am delighted, but major thing is how to
get the Chinese.
J: Directly. Unless I have to go through protocol. I should probably go through
Bush but we don't want to get involved.
K: You are knownfor the frontal approach. Extend the invitation but don't way I a
on the invitation. They want to be on parallel courses with us but I don't want the
to think it's rigged.
J: Can it be cooperative? Want to contribute and not a social thing.
K: I think it's interesting to see what happens.
