K: Hello
D: Hello. I have received an answer from my government to the question
you asked yesterday. The answer is yes. The announcement will be
Thursday - your time will be 12 o'clock and in ours will be 19. That is
Thursday, May 20th. This is official confirmation. They said yes I could
reaffirm agreement of my government to you. If you could wait for the
other I should have an answer tomorrow.
K: The text as it was we agreed.
D: They are prepared to accept text we agreed on with you.
K: As we agreed with one difference. The one word --
D: I do not have confirmation on that. I cannot officially confirm it.
You asked me to put in at the present time but in this year -
K: I have checked with the President and he prefers to have it as you
would like to have it. Concentrate this year
rather than
D: Perhaps it would be good tomorrow I will drop in and talk with you
in the morning.
K: Should we set a time?
D: 11 axtix o'clock? How about 12 o'clock tomorrow?
K: That would be good. We can run through the text then. There is
a slight possibility that one word may be changed.
D: When we meet at 12 o'clock I will have word from my government on
that. This is official confirmation to you on the subject except for this
one item.
K: We are all set as far as we are concerned.
