Yeah.
Dr. Kissinger, Mr. President?
Yeah.
Mr. President.
Hello, Mr. President.
Hi, Henry.
There's only one issue that I wanted to check out with you.
Yeah.
I'm a little bit concerned about the announcement with the Japanese against, again, not knowing.
Good.
Tell them.
Of course, of course, of course.
Tell them.
The time frame is such.
Tell them now.
Oh, I understand.
Well, now, there are two ways of doing that.
One would be to do it back channel via Connelly.
The other would be to tell it through state.
Back channel through Connolly.
Good.
I'll do that.
Okay.
Good.
That's a good thing to build him up to.
Right.
That's what I thought.
That's good.
Great, Henry.
Fine.
Thank you.
