TELECON
Mr. Kissinger/Amb. Watson
November 10, 1970
W:
Hello
K:
Hello
W:
Yes Henry.
K:
How are you?
W:
I'm all right, it's very hard to get any information. One thing I
do know is that no one is going to go to that country funeral.
K:
Right.
W:
But it sounds now, I'd like to recommend that the President
announce there that he will attend the Nortredame services at
11:00 on Thursday.
K:
Right.
Jobert
W:
I tried to get the protocol, I tried to get Joe Behr and the foreign
office and it's impossible to get anybody. And now I just heard on
the radio that some of the African countries have announced they
are coming and I think the greatest nation in the world would be,
in my judgment, be right to have the President announce he's coming
and maybe send a message over the hot line to President Pompidou.
K:
That he is coming.
W:
Yeah.
K:
All right, all right.
W:
I've been trying to think my way through it Henry and try to say
what are the negatives and even though
K:
No, he wants to come, if any Head of State comes, he'll come.
W:
Well, the German Embassy, I just called them and they are recommend
ing that both the Chancellor and President come. The Ivory Coast and
Madagascar have announced they are coming and I've heard nothing
from our other people but my inclination and those of my associates,
my almost conviction is that there are gonna be a lot of people
announcing they're coming
