CONFIDENTIAL/NODIS 2. Wednesday, June 11) that Secretary Rogers had invited the Foreign Minister to Washington to a meeting on July 15 to open negotiations on the new arrangements that the Spanish Government envisaged. (The Foreign Minister has already been invited to observe the launch- ing of Apollo XI at Cape Kennedy on July 16.) I told Aguirre that it seemed to me this would be far prefer- able to having the Foreign Minister come here on June 11 simply to sign the agreement, because at that time Secretary Rogers, who will have just returned from Midway, will be so pressed with other engagements that it will be physically impossible for him to receive and treat the Foreign Minister in the way that the Secretary would desire. For your information, Aguirre very privately in- formed me that he suspected there will be some reorgani- zation in the Spanish Government within the next few weeks, possibly including for the first time the appoint- ment of a Prime Minister, and that Foreign Minister Castiella may be replaced. However, Aguirre indicated that this would not be the result of Spanish dissatis- faction over our base negotiations, which the Foreign Minister considered a political plus for himself, but rather the result of internal factors.
