[0:08] I'm here with the president and he was wondering whether you'd be able to drop over for a few minutes. [0:15] Well, I have this ceremony at 10.30. [0:20] Oh, well then it's probably not feasible. [0:23] Well, he'll catch you this afternoon. [0:24] I'm going off, but Haig will set it up then. [0:27] Very well, sir. [0:28] He just wanted to ask you the same question I asked you yesterday afternoon. [0:33] Yes, sir. [0:34] And hear it from you himself. [0:36] Yes, sir. [0:37] Good. [0:38] Well, I look forward to seeing you in Saigon, and the President will see you this afternoon. [0:42] Very good, sir.
