State Dept. review completed
1. UPON RECEIPT OF YOUR MESSAGE, I CALLED THE CHINESE ON SUNDAY
AND SET UP A MEETING TODAY;, MONDAY. AFTER OPENING PLEASANTRIES,
I TOLD THE AMBASSADOR THAT I HAD ANOTHER REPORT FROM YOU ON YOUR
MID-EAST MISSION IN THE SPIRIT OF KEEPING THE CHINESE INFORMED ON
IMPORTANT INTERNATIONAL ISSUES. HE COMMENTED THAT PRESS REPORTS
INDICATED THAT YOU HAD MADE A BREAKTHROUGH AT THE END OF YOUR TRIP,
AFTER CONFIRMING THIS, I READ HIM YOUR ORAL MESSAGE. HE THANKED US
AND SAID THAT HE WOULD REPORT IMMEDIATELY TO HIS GOVERNMENT.
2. THE AMBASSADOR AGAIN WAS AMUSFD,BY THE WAY'WE WERE HANDLING
THE SOVIET PARTICIPATION AND COMMENTED THAT AT MOST THE U.S. AND
SOVIET AMBASSADORS WOULD BE WITNESSES TO THE FORMAL SIGNING IN
GENEVA. HE NOTED THAT THE PAPERS SUGGESTED THAT YOU MIGHT RE
BACK ON THURSDAY, AND I REPLIED THAT MY PERSONAL ESTIMATE WAS
THAT IT WAS APT TO BE THE WEEKEND BEFORE YOU RETURNED. HE NOTED
THAT BEFORE YOU LEFT HE WISHED THAT YOU WOULD GAIN NEW ACHIEVEMENTS,
AND HE WAS HAPPY TO SEE THAT TOWARD THE END YOU WERE ABLE TO BRING
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE TWO SIDES. OF COURSE, THIS AGREEMENT WAS
ONLY A PRELIMINARY ONE AND THERE WAS STILL MUCH TO BE DONE AFTER
THIS; AS VICE PREMIER TENG HSIAO-PIING HAD SAID TO YOU, IF ISRAEL
DOES NOT WITHDRAW FROM THE?GOLAN HEIGHTS AT THE END , SYRIA WILL NOT
AGREE TO IT. HE ADDED THAT YOU HAD ALSO SAID THAT YOU HELD THIS VIEW
