ANGLO-SOVIET PLANNING TALKS

Mr Manning's (Planning Staff) circular minute of 11 January.

1.

2. You may have general views on the line Mr Walden should take on China but in preparing the attached draft briefs 6, 7 and 8 I have assumed that we should be optimistic about China's political and economic prospects and about UK/China relations and that we should be relaxed about Sino-Soviet relations.

I should be grateful for comments on these drafts by 3 pm on Friday 14 January.
