    "ocrText": "2.\nThe President\nFeb. 13, 1974\nK: ON the Embargo, Mr. President, I am confident that it will be lifted\nin a week.\nN: Sounds that way from the thing I saw last night and this morning that\nyou sent over here.\nK: They are having a summit meet of Faisal, Boumedienne and Sadat\ntoday and tomorrow.\nN: Incidentally, I got your message late last night about the conference\nand I think that is just the way to handle the French -- isolate them.\nThey don't want to be isolated. The interesting thing is though that all\nthe other countries would be willing, you know, to go along. The\nEuropeans were supposed to have unanimous vote you remember. That\nis why I made the little crack that I made at the end of the dinner because\nour friend the Canadian had told me that we have to be unanimous. I\nsaid well you aren't going to do anything then. He was not mean about it.\nK: Last week, Mr. President, the Community took a decision and today\nthey have split apart on it eight to one. It is a lesson to everybody.\nN: There is no confrontation with the Arabs, is there?\nK: Absolutely none.\nN: Make that point very clear will you in your -- when are you going to\nbrief?\nK: About 3:00.\nN: Make it very clear that you and I have chatted, etc and that the\nPresident particularly pointed out that this was not by way of confrontation\nwith the oil producing nations. On the contrary it is in their interests to\nhave first a market they can count on and at a price that is reasonable --\nwhatever you want to say. And that we all want to do that. We look forward\nto working with them in the same cooperative spirit that we worked here\nand we look forward to working with them in their economic development --\napart from oil. All that old jazz.\nK: We meet again at 12:30 and we are down to a very few minor paragraphs."
