MEMOR44DI.M FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Dobrynin-Eagleburger Meeting, 3 October
1. The main item on the White House agenda this morning was
Secretary Shultz' second-round talk today with Gromyko. Judge
Clark was on the phone to Shultz in New York for some time just
before our session.
2. Clark told me that Dobrynin had asked to talk with
Eagleburger in advance of Monday's bilateral. He then showed me
the memcon that he was preparing to brief the President on.
3. As best I can recall from a quick read, Dobrynin's
primary purpose was to accent the positive in general and to
suggest more specifically certain substantive.. areas where the
Soviets saw good prospects for agreement between the two sides.
Dobrynin said his principals had reacted very positively to the
first Shultz-Gromyko talk, and they "looked forward" to Monday's
meeting. He indicated a desire to see that the second session
also had "positive results", and wanted to cite several areas
that he believed offered opportunities for further progress in
US-Soviet negotiations.
4. Among topics cited by Dobrynin as susceptible to
progress were:
--Nuclear nonproliferation
--Comprehensive test ban
--Chemical warfare
--Indian Ocean
5. Eagleburger noted that all these were in the arms
control area. Dobrynin countered by pointing out that this was
not a complete list and that discussion of regional concerns
could also lead to some agreements. Dobrynin apparently limited
himself to these general observations, and closed with another
upbeat corrent on.the usefulness of continuing high-level
contacts.
