I L 25X1
Messrs an eir colleagues and
others comprenensive paper on the implications for the
Soviet economy on the availability of Western equipment for oil and gas
and technology. I have made notes and raised questions in the margins.
Everything could be improved but I admired its comprehensiveness and
specific qualities because it covered so many implications and ramifications.
It would benefit from a summary of various ways in which the unavailability
of Western oil and gas.equipment would be likely to impact the whole range
of Soviet capabilities and policies along the lines of your summarization
at this morning's staff meeting.
