C:
That's interesting. Why would she say that in her letter?
K:
Well, to say we weren't paying attention to the urgency of it.
It was the first thing she talked about. On the other hand they
were in the better position you know
not to move with Yahya
having handed over power then was the case previously and if that
had not been the case there would still have been time to take the
extreme measure.
C:
All right, then I am not going to put "yesterday". Do you feel
now that her letter has been released, isn't it true we gave India
more aid since '47 than any other country?
K:
Absolutely.
C:
Do you have any analysis as to why she did the letter?
K:
To put us on the defensive. I think she was stunned by this criticism.
C:
It really doesn't make a very intelligent case to me - the letter.
I will look to you for guidance.
K:
This other business about the unilateral withdrawal and negotiations
with the Awambi League and the 20th still stands.
