The President/Mr. Kissinger
10:55 p.m., December 6, 1971 -- page 2
K:
(cont'd)
and says
--
P:
I don't know what he talked to the Senators about.
K:
The same thing, I'11 bet my bottom dollar on it. He has said we are
washing our hands of it; whatever the UN decides; we have done all
we can do; the ceasefire and political accomodations
P:
No responsibility on the Indians.
K:
And not making clear to them their own future is involved.
P:
Get your backgrounder first.
K:
Wait and see what happens on the Senators.
P:
On the Rogers thing. U-Hummp.
K:
We can decide tomorrow.
P:
Okay.
K:
But we can let this note be overtaken by events.
P:
Just say, this is totally unacceptable.
K:
It will be overtaken by events tomorrow morning.
P:
Put the line out, it must be very clearly understood we have done
everything that we can and that the cutting off -- Rogers did have
the cutting off of economic assistance
K:
He has said, "War doesn't help anybody. 11 What he should have said
is
where the Indians knew
P:
That's the line I used. I used it with Trudeau.
K:
You used it with Trudeau and it was perfect.
But that's not what Richey &
company are going to put on diplomatic wires tonight.
P:
Correct it. Why wait?
K:
Let's see what he said to the Senators.
