Thank you for your teleletter of 25 October.

responses

As requested, I enclose a summary of other countries' to our diplomatic campaign. Although some of the information it contains has already been made public (such as the Australian response), much of it has not. Also, we do not expect by any means all of the possibilities outlined in

in the summary to materialise. We suggest therefore that you do not pass any of the specific details in the summary on to the Americans at this stage.

Your sucadly
