TELCON
Sisco/Kissinger
9:05 a. m. 12/3/71
K: You have the best secretary employed. She gets me on the phone first everytime
S: Have you seen the reports?
K: the west?
n
S: Yes. The secretary is on his way in and we will review it. You will
probbly want a WSAG in a few hours.
K: Schedule now for 11:00.
S: We don't know if reports are accurate. It's obviously the beginning of more
serious action in the West. We have a strong public statement on cut off and
reply to Yahya. My instinct is that we should go to the Paks and be more
direct. We need to get it in the UN.
K: I am for it.
S: We have looked at this and let's get it in.
K: We could take it there ourselves.
S: That's the point. And one interesting feature about this. We are the only
major power who can play the Tashkent role. Russians cannot because of
Pakistanis.
K: My view now -- have you got a statement?
S: Secretary has not seen and on his way in.
K: Will be released at noon?
S: Yes.
K: It's the President's decision. Either here or in Key Biscayne. We want
you to do it.
S: I think it's just as well.
K: Can you send a copy over here?
S: It's being typed clean and send to you with understanding it's not been seen
by the Secretary.
