I was wondering if you could keep Ecevit til my man\ngets there and then the three of you could talk.\nC:IX I think it is possible. that he would agree because his Assembly meeting\nhas been cancelled. Would you like me to do it ?\nK: Don't you think it would be helpful ?\nC: I do indeed. And I will tell him, but who will be coming, is it\nSisco ?\nK: What is your judgment?\nC: Ithink Sisco would be good. He is a troubleshooter and he knows what\npower is.\nK: It will probably be Sisco or Ingersoll, but probably Sisco.\nC: Very good. I will tell ylau what Ecevit is saying. He wants a joint\nstatement by the Turks and ourselves saying we don't recognize the new\nregime and the old regi me should be restored and we can't wait on Makarios'\nreplacement. . time is important. NATO will break up. can;t cooperate\nwith NATO or Greece any longer. We should now give, the Turks and\nourselves, an ultimatum to Greece and the forces on the Island should come\nunder UN control and. more effective to the Turks, the United Kingdom\nshould allow Turkish troops through our sovereign base on the Island. And\nalso that unilateral action is inevitable sooner or later because the Turks\nwill regard themselves as hostages and they will need to protect them.\nThe force levels.\nwill be open to the UN and they are willing to start\ndealing with Makarios.\nK: I think it is extreme. That may open up a whole segment of events.\nC: S O do I.\nCall in any troops, like Soviet troops and they have been hinting at\nthis -- whether we should be willing to have a joint Soviet /U$ operation.\nC: Have they?\nDECLASSIFIED\nE.O. 13526, Section 3.5\nNLN09-50/12570 Per Hr. 2/3/2016\nBy 25/mit NARA, Date 11/14/2016"
