TELECON
Senator Fulbright/Secretary Kissinger
December 5, 1973
8:12c PM
K: We have sent a letter to Faisal - the President has - and I have
asked my office to show it to you when you return SO that you at least
know what line we have taken with Faisal when you meet Yamani.
SANITIZED
The
Egyptians have now formally accepted the Conference for December 18th,
they have proposed UN auspices which is no problem to us. In fact,
we prefer it. And there are a few really minor points that are impossible
to explain on the phone -- how to get the Lebanese and Palestinians
eventually connected with the Conference. So I think it's definitely on
course.
F: I'm down in Oseola, Arkansas, and I've been trying to preach your
doctrine.
K: I want to tell you again that working with you has been one of the
most rewarding things.
F: Well, maybe we can do something useful.
K: I'm confident weccan. What is your thought of Congressional
participation at the Conference ?
F: I believe it would not be very wise, but if later - when you get into
substance - after you've been meeting for a day or two - and then we
might for substantive things later get into it - that may be useful.
K: The first two days will be mostly formal speeches. You don't
think we need to show Congressional backing at this stage?
F: You know whether Congressional backing
