MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT'S FILE

[The Press was admitted for photographs.]

You got the Ceausescu invitation.

Yes. I want to visit Romania as soon as our mutual schedules can be worked out.

[The press is ushered out.]

I appreciate very much the invitation of President Ceausescu, and I will accept as soon as I can work it out.

Perhaps when you come to Europe, you can do it. It is important for us to exchange views and maintain relations.

I want you to know Secretary Kissinger has my full confidence. I subscribe completely to President Nixon's foreign policy.
