The Soviets have proposed the establishment of a US consulate general in Len- ingrad, as the center of a consular district to be composed of the Karelian area and the districts of Leningrad, Novgorod, Pskov, Arkhangel, and Murmansk. In exchange, the USSR would establish a consulate general in San Francisco to serve a six-state area made up of California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Alaska, and Hawaii. The Russians have indicated that they stand ready to begin discussion of the proposal. ap Iran - Saudi Arabia: Iranian-Saudi negotiations on the division of oil resources in the mid - Persian Gulf reportedly are running into difficulties. Al- though the two governments have tentatively agreed to divide the disputed oil equally, the method of drawing a dividing line is now under dispute. F The companies have overlapping concessions in the disputed area. 15 Aug 68 Central Intelligence Bulletin 12 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/03/04: CIA-RDP79T00975A011900010002-7 Approved For Nigeria: Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, in a new and almost desperate initiative, has called for an urgent meeting in Addis Ababa on 19 August of the Organization of African Unity's six-state com- mittee on Nigeria. He has asked both rebel leader Ojukwu and General Gowon personally to attend. He also called on Gowon to declare a temporary cease- fire to facilitate relief shipments. The Emperor I I admitted that, despite his strenuous efforts, e a been unable to find a common ground between the disputants. The Emperor's prospects of getting everyone to the meet- ing on 19 August appear slim, and--even if he were successful--the chances of getting a firm agreement remain poor. _F_ I 15 Aug 68 Central Intelligence Bulletin 25X1 25X1 25X1= 25X1 25X1- Approved For Release 01 - 11900010002-7 Top Stwftd For Release 2003/03/04: CIA-RDP79T00975A011900010002-7 Top Secret Approved For Release 2003/03/04: CIA-RDP79T00975A011900010002-7
