Telcon J. Sisco/Kissinger August 15, 1973; 11:55 a. m. K: Hello. S: Yes, Henry, good morning again. K: Joe, I just talked to the President because I thought that this was not a matter that should happen without running it by him. S: Sure. K: Now his view, he is basically opposed to sanctions which I hadn't really focused on. S: Well, then, we got away from that. K: Well, but even consider taking sanctions. S: Well, if the word "sanctions" is not used, that last paragraph commits us to nothing, Henry. K: Well, what he would like, ideally, I want you to know what he wants. I don't know whether that's possible. If it is possible to vote on this thing by paragraphs, he would like us to vote for the condemnation and abstain on the sanctions. S: Well, I'll talk to Scali to find out how far it's gone. I'm afraid it's gone beyond it but let me see what I can do right away Henry. K: You know, he said I should work it out with you, but that's what he wants, and you know that wasn't my view this morning. But he just came back from Camp David and I thought I'd better run it by. S: I can understand. Well, if it's possible, Henry, I'll just tell Scali what you've told me and I don't know whether it's possible. K: But you see, you know, he S: But you know, Henry, it really isn't a sanction paragraph at all, it really isn't. K: But you can see why he doesn't. S: Oh, I know what the problem is. You've got to view this from a broader context.
