? General. Haig
(Paris)
Following information was given to me today at the Chinese Embassy
residence in Paris by Tsao and Wei. They commented that it was not
a message but for our information and they were anxious to have it
transmitted.
"According to our intelligence reports, certain elements
of the Chiangkai-Shek clique are conspiring to paint onto military
aircraft of the Chiangkai-Shek clique the markings of the People's
Republic of China for a surprise attack on President Nixon's special
plane on its way to China. The Chinese side finds it difficult to
judge the reliability of these reports, but wishes to bring them to
the attention of the United States side."
