H:
I guess that's right. I hope to God that they keep that thing under control.
K:
Well, we're trying to bring about now what we've always tried to do --
a constitutional solution. And maybe find a compremise by which the
next line in to Makarios takes over.
H:
Yes, that seemed to me the most sensible thing if that is possible.
K:
That is frankly what we tried to do all along.
H:
Yes, I gather that--
K:
But we couldn't tip our hand too early until we had line d up one of the
parties.
H:
Yes.
K:
And once we had the I rks lined up for that, we were going to bring
pressure on the Greeks.
H:
Ah ha.
K
But we have Sisco going to Athens now to insist on that Clerities
solution.
H:
What can you do about these landings if anything?
K
We are telling them to stop but they haven't take advice before, so I
can guarantee they'1 take it now
H:
The news reports to the effect that the Soviets are kind of giving them
a little shove
K:
The Soviets have been rather reckless - they urged them on earlier
in the week--
H:
Thank you Henry much--I felt that in the Committee , as yu know,
there was an effort made to be very very critical of the Greek government
the other day, and we sort of side-tracked it for a while--I was just worried
about that there might be some effort being made in some echelons of the
department to recognize this group that came in--and that I thought would
be premature and unnecessary
K:
I ggree and it was never our attention. Claiborne Pell can confirm that I
told him it was never our intention before the invasion--
H:
All right friend.
K:
Hubert when you write it is always taken seriously, as when you call.
H:
Thank you sir, my best to you.
