THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
SECRET
MEMORANDUM FOR THE VICE PRESIDENT
SUBJECT:
Spanish Opposition to US Oceans Policy/Straits
Proposal
Continuing Spanish opposition to the US proposal for freedom of
transit through international straits has given me cause for deep
concern. In the letter accompanying this memorandum, I have
written General Franco to express that concern, to review the
security considerations underlying our straits proposal, and to
emphasize the great importance we attach to international accep-
tance of that proposal.
Please deliver this letter personally, reemphasizing the importance
we attach to our straits proposal and our hope that Spain will join us
in safeguarding the vital interests involved. I have instructed
Ambassador Hill and the Department of State Legal Advisor to
accompany you on this call.
