:11:01
President Kennedy wants
the Chairman to know
:11:03
that if your ships try to get through,
:11:05
we will turn them back.
:11:08
That suggests a very harsh picture.
:11:12
Well, is a statement of fact.
:11:14
We don't want to mislead
Chairman Khrushchev.
:11:16
Surely, there is some other message
you wish to convey,
:11:18
some basis for negotiation?
:11:20
At the moment, none.
:11:22
We will turn your ships back.
:11:24
I don't want to be accused again
of misleading the President.
:11:30
The Chairman will
take appropriate action.
:11:34
And so will the President.
:11:37
Your facts are perfectly clear.
:11:40
But you haven't made them public.
:11:41
Whatever uninformed public opinion
may be,
:11:43
those Soviet bases exist.
:11:45
Some of your closest allies and
friends are not convinced.
:11:51
Even Ugateson talks about
so-called missiles in Cuba.
:11:56
Do you prefer an air strike or
an invasion?
:12:02
I prefer diplomacy.
:12:04
Yes.
:12:07
Khrushchev would welcome a summit.
:12:09
But while he's constructing those bases,
:12:11
there's absolutely nothing
for me to negotiate
:12:14
but American strength and
American interest.
:12:16
I think you should release the evidence,
:12:18
prove to the world that
those bases and missiles exist.
:12:21
The evidence is in aerial photographs.
:12:23
Publish them.
:12:24
I can't.
:12:27
I'd compromise our
intelligence operations.
:12:30
Mr. President, without
ill-informed public opinion
:12:34
on your side,
:12:36
without the world knowing that
those bases and missiles exist,
:12:39
you increase the chances for
conflict, you don't diminish them.
:12:45
There mustn't be the slightest suspicion
:12:47
that you are provoking a crisis
:12:49
because there's an election
here next month.
:12:54
Good evening, Mr. President.
:12:55
David, how are you?
:12:56
Missed you at dinner, Robert.
:12:57
Sit down.
:12:58
How are you?
:12:59
Very hungry.
