K: My personal advice, you understand its not an official position yet,
but it is my usual tactic of anticipating in order to gain time.
D: As I said last night.
K: You will not be permitted to capture that army. I am certain.
D: Its not first priority. We would rather have them go home.
K: I don't think that will be possible either. Unless you withdraw your
forces.
D: Well. That comes back to your suggestion, that we suggested to you
that night.
K: You won't
in the North.
D: Don't want both sides of the canal in the North.
K: I frankly think you will make a mistake if you push into a total
confrontation.
D: We're not trying for a confrontation, just want to find the best way
to solve it.
K: Well, I have given you my views, it would be helpful if we could
get an answer in the early part of the afternoon. Oh, something I
have meant to tell you earlier and have neglected to twice, what I
talked with Dobrynin about the conference was very minor, whether
the site would be in New York or Geneva. that the site would not
be in New York, but Geneva which is what the Foreign Minister told
me. Why he wanted that I don't know.
D: I will find out.
K: I think it has some remoteness from here and from the UN and tha
American and Soviet person of appropriate rank would sit in on the
first few sessions and that's as much as we discussed.
D: OK, I will pass it on.
K: No substantive discussion whatever.
D: Fine.
K: Do tell them because the President has been bugging me to do it.
