TelCo Ron Ziegler/Mr. Kissinger 8:44 am, April 12, 1973 K: Do you realize that all the morning TV says the NSC is about Cambodia. Z: Yeah, and that's exactly what I didn't say, as a matter of fact we said it wasn't. I saw that on the TODAY show and I've got Jerry cleaning it up now. I also didn't say that Haig would ;meet with the President today. K: Well, don't deny it too much now that it's been out. Just leave it alone now. Z: I'll play it however you want, but I just want you to know that what I said yesterday is I never discussed the subject and of NSC but the thing returning the NSC and the President's trip to Camp David are not related. K: Then that's just speculating Z: Yeah, and when I said that Haig was returning, he's been reporting by cable to Kissinger and the President, and that he would meet with the President and Kissinger would see him after he returned, but I didn't know when that would be, and didn't necessarily know it would be Thursday. But we can fake that any time. K: Well, we should have it, get Haig over here some time. ZxK: Well, I'll have to talk to him anyway. Z: That's what I mean, but we can pry him in, right. K: Right, of course. Z: In other words, he'll come over here today to meet with the President and you. K: Right. Z: I think it's good to get that out. K: Absolutely, you have to get that out. Okay. Z: Okay, well that's all it is. K: Good, thank you. Z: Okay, Henry.
