K: Right D: This is one thing. The second thing, two days ago it was questioned to me about giving him some information some of our representatives from our Embassy in London discussed with some representatives of the British Foreign Office he said get some information of this kind but he was not so sure of. About this joining of Great Britain to USSR-American agreement on prevention of nuclear war. At the very beginning where he told me I said I am sure it is not true in a sense that thie particular person has no specific instruction which interferes because I know that it was not so I checked once again so now I receive a confirmation that specifically says that none of our representatives in Londor or ina ny other country was given instructions to discuss the question of joining this or that country to the USSR-American agreement on prevention of nuclear war. There was none. K: Right. D: That everything we told the President on behalf of the Brezhnev in August that at that time Canada referred to China and France. This completely the same answers developed for London. So the solution is there has probably been some kind of misunderstanding of maybe some of our employees or theirs. But the message says that there was not any at all really given any instruction on this subject. And there is this telegram saying that we very strongly adhere to the agreement on the understanding that we have at a high level. K: Right. D: Both sides will not do anything or any particular in order to have an ajoining of other countries to this particular agreement. K: Right. D: So they emphasized that it is our strong belief and intentions to adhere to that understanding which we had on a high level. K: Right. D: Not to do anything to involve the other countries in this prevention of nuclear war. So this I would like to talk to Henry and the message to the President. K: I most certainly will sir. - 3 -
