TELCON
Ambassador Dobrynin/Mr. Kissinger
4:53 p.m., May 5, 1972
D:
Yes, Henry.
K:
Anatol, there was just one point about our conversation that I didn't
want to mislead your people about.
D:
Yeah.
K:
That had to do with your comment that the President was angry when
he sent that letter.
D:
Yeah.
K:
Well, he may -- you ought to treat this letter as a cold deliberate
one.
D:
Cold, yeah. I see.
K:
Now it's up to you what you do with it and we're not asking for any
particular
D:
This was my personal comment. I didn't really mention to Moscow
K:
Okay. Well, you're free to have any judgment you want; I'm not
going debate it.
D:
I just mentioned it to you really. This was my impression; I didn't
make any comment on this because it's really subjective, you see,
and I don't like to make a very personal subjective feeling.
K:
No; it was carrying to the attention of your leaders what he thought
the situation then was.
D:
No, I understand. No, I mean I don't like to send my own feelings.
That's why I didn't mention it to Moscow.
K:
Okay, fine. Well, as long as they treat it on its --
D:
No, no; I understand. So we just leave it --
K:
There's no need for you to make any additional comments.
D:
No, no.
K:
And we're not asking for any particular thing.
