Secretary Kissinger
Mr. Bourghiba, Jr. of Tunisa
1:30 p.m.
11/1/73
K:
How are you?
B:
Hello, sir. I want to apologize for intruding like this.
K:
That's all right.
B:
But I was on my way from Turkey this day and I looked on the papers
and I saw your trip which is being prepared and I will be very brief
sir, I would like just to make a few points--
K:
Yes, but you unfortunately called me out of a meeting and I have to
be very brief if you forgive me.
B:
Yes, I will be very brief sir. I have seen that your program has
overlooked Tunisa.
K:
Well, I was sending Secretary Neusome to Tunisa.
B:
Yes sir, but if I may just add one word--the - personality of President
Bourghiba--your overflying Tunisa without stopping would be very
badly interpreted.
K:
All right, well let me see what I can do.
B:
I beg your pardon?
K:
Let me see what I can do.
B:
You're very kind.
K:
And we will be in touch.
B:
One suggestion - a one hour stop would be more than anything.
K:
All right. At the airport?
B:
It would be terrible not stopping.
K:
All right, I will see what we can do. And we will be in touch.
B:
I'm sorry for intruding.
K:
No, I appreciate it and I remember the pleasure of our conversation.
B:
Thank you SO much. Good night, sir. Thank you.
