MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence

Acting National Intelligence Officer for Economics
SUBJECT: Initial Meeting on NSSD 2-86: Soviet Initiatives
in International Economic Affairs
1. Steve Danzansky chaired the initial meeting today on NSSD-2. The
questions are (a) what are the Soviets up to and why, (b) what new
initiatives (such as the GATT demarche and joint enterprise offers) might we
expect, and what should be the U.S. response?
2. The exercise is geared to providing a Community view prior to any
summit. There was no sense that the U.S. should respond favorably on any of
the items discussed such as GATT or the IMF. NSC apparently wants to reduce
the risk of surprises from Moscow and make sure there are no loose ends in
the policy community.
3. DDI/SOVA will contribute major portions of the study which is
currently scheduled for completion on 15 October.
