- 2 - American interest in near-by countries such as Saudi Arabia and Ethiopia, and also in view of possible future developments in the Yemen, it is the Department's belief that the United States should indicate to the Imam its readiness to ex- tend formal recognition to the Government of the Imam (already in treaty relations with the British and with Saudi Arabia) and to establish a channel for the exchange of diplomatic correspondence. This measure, it is believed, should precede any decision on Yemeni requests for assistance. As soon as recognition has been extended to the Government of the Yemen, an exchange of notes could provide reciprocal, unconditional, most- favored nation treatment pending negotiation of a formal treaty of commerce and navigation. The Department would appreciate an expres- sion of your views on the suggested establishment of relations with the Yemen. In the event you approve its suggestion, the Department will be glad to take the steps necessary to accomplish that end. people Jan the Acting Secretary
