BUT HE WILL HAVE TO RETURN TO LONDON ON 22 MAY FOR CABINET AND TO DELIVER HIS SPEECH AT THE ROYAL ACADEMY RANQUET IN THE AFTERNOON. THERE IS THEREFORE NO (NO) POSSIBILITY OF HIS MEETING WU ON THE AFTERNOON OF 22 MAY, AS INDEED HE HAS ALREADY POINTED OUT. 23 MAY WOULD STILL BE POSSIBLE BUT IT WOULD MEAN MAKING A SPECIAL JOURNEY TO BRUSSELS, AND IS THEREFORE THE LEAST PREFERABLE OPTION.
