| Editorial comments: | Published online April 2022. Assumed to be a Presidential record. Read other documents selected from this file. Translated by Bard. Quite who was present at this meeting is unclear. Note that the term 'Secretary General' was being used by the Argentinians during this visit to refer to the US Secretary of State, who held the rank of four star general. But Haig is explicitly stated to be elsewhere. No US record of this conversation appears to have been made; certainly none was found by FRUS (see footnote 8 to document 90). |
