RELCON ermit Gordon/Kissinger 5:07 pm 6/11/70 K: How's the government in exile. G: You take me off guard when you greet me with that. Very good of you to call me back. I have a brief question. I have been talking to Howard Turner of Turner Construction. He has been approached by Kosygin's son-in-law. He wants an American architect and several construction companies to take a contract in the Soviet Union to ? ? ? ? in the Soviet Union. He has qualms and doean't want to get into a Henry Ford disaster. It's natural that they would come to him as he has one of the biggest constinction compienies in the U.S. I thought you might be able to recommend someone for him to talk to about this. K: Let him talk to Fred Bergsten initially. G: I will have him get in touch with Fred tomorrow. K: Also Sonnenfeldt on the political side. That's even more important. G: Had you heard about this? K: I wouldn't until it's become a proposal. G: Anything that would divert the Soviets to massive residential building would be good from our stand point. K: Yes. ? ? ? ?
