Kissinger sees it i recently wrote that the discovery by the Carter administration of a secret memorandum of a conversation be tween president Nixon and Premier Chou Enlal in 1972 revealed that Nixon prom ised in his second term to normalize re lations with China and that this meant abandoning my commentary was Bawd on a frontage Story in the new York Henry Kissinger has advised me that the Story is substantially misleading and my comments therefore the Crux of the question is what does normalize mean the Carter adminis and indeed most appear to agree that it Means the sever Ance of United states diplomatic and Mili tary relations with were this to the Mainland chinese would be free to mount a military Campaign against Taiwan to Force another View of normalization and this was the Kissinger of the Nixon administration accepts the withdrawal of diplomatic recognition of Taiwan but Only if Mainland China pledges to limit itself to peaceful Means of attempt ing we never once went beyond the language of the Shanghai com he advised the memorandum concerning Nixon initiatives during the second term meant merely that not until 1973 would it be possible to move toward now Here is the relevant language from the Shanghai that Docu ment was in two parts the first a state ment by the United the second a statement by the our own state ment asserted that there is but one and that Taiwan is a part of but it went on to reaffirms its in Terest in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by the chinese them the operative word Here is with this Prospect in it affirms the ultimate objective of the withdrawal of All forces and military installations from in the meantime it will progressively reduce its Force and military installations on Taiwan As the ten Sion in the area presumably by the Kissinger analysis if tension did not there is no requirement that the United states desert its military installations or rescind its de sense tension would hardly Dimin ish if China was preparing an amphibious the chinese took a different position in succinctly stated in a single sen tence the liberation of Taiwan is chivas internal after the reelection of at a meeting with a chinese the Secre tary of state asked for a commitment to peaceful Means of attempting to effect the the chinese declined to make such a whereupon the United states froze its present normalization was for that reason not on account of put in and the memorandum allegedly unearthed by the Carter administration for the first time last week was actually reviewed As Early As last february by Secretary of state Cyrus is the question As it Crystal if the Nixon administration viewed a commitment to peaceful overtures to Taiwan by the Mainland chinese As a pre condition to is the Carter administration willing to stand by that precondition or is the Carter administration pre pared now to go beyond what Nixon prone the opinion tips Towd in int column ctn oni on thu now of int author in no to rep Remolina the it two of the ised by adopting in effect the chinese position in this matter if the Carter administration is preparing to do is it trying to set up Public opinion by Advertis that it is going no further than Nixon himself was secretly prepared Togo but surely that is to run a great be cause physically present at the crucial meeting with Chou denial were Nixon and both of whom Are very much and there is the secret me Moran which Carter is in a position to perhaps the Senate foreign relations committee has already seen certainly the question is one that ought to be resolved we have a question that should be easy to the memorandum should be and a National debate should then i am inclined to believe Kissinger version not Only because he is a but because in 1968 it was he who told me that impending plans by defense Secretary Clark Clifford to ditch the Thieu govern ment would signal to the world that to be an enemy of the United states May be Dan but to be a Friend of the United states is the Nan who framed that thought would presumably not be a willing party to the betrayal of Roy Wilkins equal Opportunity and the Banks the Banks have been assisting in
