USA February 4, 1988 Dear Mr. Chairman: Your request for the "Round by Round Analysis of the INF Treaty Negotiations" has been referred to me, and I am pleased to provide a copy for your information. This paper, entitled "Development of US and Soviet Positions on Intermediate-Range and Shorter-Range Alissiles in the Nuclear and Space Talks: Round-by-Round Analysis," was prepared by the staff of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency as an informal, working description and summary of the evolution of the INF negotiations from March 1985 through their conclusion. However, while the analysis has been reviewed within other Agencies and by INF Delegation members, it represents an informal staff report, not an official or authoritative Administration account of the negotiations. With that understanding, I hope you will find the enclosed analysis helpful in your deliberations. Sincerely, David Emery Acting Enclosure As stated The Honorable Claiborne Pell Chairman Committee on Foreign Relations United States Senate Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/12/14 :CIA-RDP90M00005R000300070024-1
