K:
Anatol, I just wanted to tell you the following. We are having a major
domestic problem, which as you will see, even you will recognize it's
major, which is coming to a head early this afternoon.
D:
Yeah.
K:
And so there will be decisional delay until I can get you But you will
get your formal answer.
D:
You mean it happens today or tomorrow?
K:
By the end of the day I will give you an answer.
D:
By the end of the day.
K:
I just want you to know. You will see that this is not a delaying tactic.
D:
Yeah. But what is the crisis? Could you tell me that?
K:
Well, it concerns the Vice President.
D:
Oh, I see.
K:
So I wanted you to know that and I'11 be in touch with you around
4:00 or 5:00 o'clock this afternoon.
D:
400 or 5:00.
K:
Right.
D:
Okay.
K:
We are thinking very seriously about what you said.
D:
No, I think this is really a chance for both of us.
K:
No, no, I recognize it. Now, may I urge you, however, really both you
and your friends, not to force us into anything prematurely.
D:
But what really our friends could force you, really? I don't -- Could
you really mention what our friends could force you, for example?
