TO: AMBASSADOR MOYNIHAN, NEW DELHI fir3
FROM: HENRY KISSINGER, WESTERN WHITE HOUSE
1. We were not able to arrange meeting for T. N. Kaul here
with the President, who is preoccupied with upcoming press conference.
He wanted to see me anyway, so I spent 45 minutes with him here in
general discussion, touring the compound, and introducing him to
notables such as Haig, Laird, Ziegler, Harlow, Buchanan, and
Mrs. Armstrong.
Z. His main point was an effort to engage me in mediation to
break deadlock over prisoners. On basis of our discussion I agreed to
pass on message to Bhutto, which is attached. This is for your eyes
only and must not be discussed with anybody repeat anybody.
3. He asked again about the rupees, debt rescheduling, and
agricultural export controls. On the economic issues being negotiated,
?I told him I had heard from you that things were working out well.
4. I mentioned to him that we have seen reports of domestic
problems in India, and we wanted to assure the Prime Minister of our
interest in her success. We would do anything we could to make her tasks
easier. Kaul was appreciative and said India reciprocated it
5. War
Attachment.
