Wu
Peking telegram no 2205 reports that Sir R Evans with meet
Xueqian on 27 November.
Should he explore with Wu the
possibility of a further meeting between the Secretary of State
and Wu in the summer of 1987, in addition to Wu's visit to the UK
next year?
Recommendation
2.
I recommend that we instruct the Ambassador to indicate to
Wu that:
(a) the Secretary of State looks forward to seeing Wu here
next year, preferably during the first half; and
(b) the Secretary of State is thinking in terms
of a further
possible meeting with Wu during the summer of 1987.
3.
I submit a draft telegram on these lines. At FED's request,
the telegram also instructs HMA/Peking to make
need for progress at the next round
