K:
Yeh.
R:
We have to work up what would be acceptable from that standpoint.
What I can do over here is have our people, have our own ideas, to
see how can we legally disband them without anything going before
the UN and work up a scenario from that standpoint, not bringing
in of course anything about the Chinese or dealing with the Chinese
because if the South Koreans thing we are doing this to get something
on the outside or having agreed to the Chinese behind their back so
to speak, we'll run into the same sort of thing.
K:
Now can we tell the Chinese that when we said adjourn sine die that
this is all that UNCURK can do and that then the countries - we would
cooperate with the countries concerned in pulling out.
R:
We can do that. If they adjourn sine die and we cooperate with the
countries to pull out, XXX they might not even disband sine die. But
this, Henry, is what we could try to dod I would have to really study
the legalities of that more to be sure that it would stand up, but we
could tell the Chinese that that, we think, is the best way of doing it.
If it stands up legally and frankly I think they should accept it and
we could go ahead on that basis. Now we'd also have to evidence (?)
then with the Russians and with the North Koreans.
K:
We'll let the Chinese deliver the North Koreans and then we'll worry
about the Russians.
R:
Well, we could do that, but the Russians could still, as you know,
cause trouble and you'd have your UN debate.
K:
Yeh.
R:
In addition to UNCURK, as you know, we also
have the UN command there and the South Koreans I understand, would
be very upset if the UN Command were liquidated.
K:
That I understand.
R:
And the feeling is that the only way you get the South Koreans to go along
with this would be to give them our assurances that we would certainly
try to see that the UN Command was not dissolved and that there would
not be an unraveling of the entire UN picture in South Korea.
K:
Well the fact is that last year I was told by Alex Johnson that I could
tell them that UNCURK would be abolished if they avoided the UN debate.
R:
I think we can do that.
