MEMORANDUM FOR: National Intelligence Officer for Economics
FROM: Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT: Western Europe: Moving Toward Gas Security?
Will you give me a two or three page memorandum, suitable for top
policymakers,on the present significance of the Norwegian gas situation,
the European market and Soviet energy and currency resources. This
should be in the context of our present interests and options for taking
economic, financial and geopolitical action to avoid excessive European
dependence on Soviet energy and a Soviet windfall in the ability to buy
from the advanced countries.
