04:01:56 14Oct86 Meeting w/ Officials of the State Dep. & the US Arms Control & Disarmament Agency on the Meetings in Reykjavik, Iceland With Gorbachev. Standing at microphones: (beginning near end of remarks & complete to end) “So here’s how I see the meeting in Iceland adding up; we addressed the important issues of human rights, regional conflicts, & our bilateral relationship...
04:02:32 The biggest disappointment in Iceland was that Mr. Gorbachev decided to make our progress hostage to his demand that we kill our strategic defense program. But, you know, I’ve had some experience w/ this kind of thing. One of my past jobs was as a negotiator of labor agreements in the motion picture industry, & I got used to one side or another walking out of contract talks. It didn’t mean that relations had collapsed...
04:03:06 Well, it’s important for us right now to see the real progress...
04:04:05 Thank you, again, all of you, for all that you’ve done. God bless you.
