TELCON Ambassador Koscuisko-Morizet (France)/Mr. Kissinger 5:00 p.m., September 22, 1972 K: Hello KM: Thank you. I just now K: Thank you for the breakfast this morning. KM: Oh, thank you very much, not at all. The talks have been very good. K: Good. KM: But of course it was general views and I understand that in this meeting only general views will be expressed and of course the terms are still very vague and I think when the talks will be known it will be more and more precise. But (in New York ?) I think the talks are productive and I am sure the President appreciates it. K: Well, he's under strict instructions to do nothing that will produce a confrontation with France and to settle it and I hope he made clear to you that he will try to settle it in a constructive way. KM: Yes, yes; it was very clear. K: Good. And so what he says -- you know, it doesn't really matter if we state a certain position as long as we're not going to drive it to the point of showdown with you. KM: But what is necessary of course is a further consultation. K: Yes. Oh, absolutely. And that we will strongly promote. KM: Yes, yes. K: And that you can tell your President, as indeed the President I think wrote at the bottom of his letter. KM: Okay. Well, thank you very much. I think it was very useful. K: Good. Thank you. KM: Bye.
