:39:03
Is arranged.
:39:04
I'm very glad.
:39:06
Please keep me informed.
:39:07
Certainly.
:39:19
Now the, urgent matter.
:39:22
Sniff the air, what do you smell?
:39:28
War.
:39:29
At any moment.
:39:30
Something must be done.
:39:32
Your government should have
thought of that
:39:34
before you manipulated the missiles.
:39:36
You and I will debate
cause and effect another time.
:39:39
At this moment,
sane men must try to find a way out.
:39:43
Is there one?
:39:44
Suppose I were to tell you
that I have a proposal that we would
:39:49
like you to take up with
your high level contacts
:39:51
at the State Department.
:39:53
I'd listen to it, of course.
:39:55
What would you think of a proposition
:39:57
where we would solve the crisis
along the following lines.
:40:00
My government would agree to dismantle
:40:02
and to move the offensive weapons
in Cuba,
:40:04
promise never to reintroduce
such weapons,
:40:06
and agree to United Nations
inspection and verification.
:40:12
And my government?
:40:15
President Kennedy would undertake
a solemn promise
:40:17
that neither the United States
nor its allies
:40:19
will invade Cuba now or in the future.
:40:25
A pledge to respect the integrity
of the Castro regime?
:40:30
Yes.
:40:32
Would your government be interested
in this formula?
:40:36
I don't know.
:40:38
You must find out as quickly as possible.
:40:43
How can my government know
if this is a serious,
:40:46
a valid proposal?
:40:49
You may say if Ambassador Stevenson
pursues this approach
:40:52
in the United Nations,
our Ambassador Zorin
:40:54
will be most receptive.
:40:58
How long will it take you
to get an answer from your contacts?
