Met with group of Sen’s. who wanted to be re-assured that I was not abandoning Taiwan. Kasten was the main spokesman. I think they are now satisfied. Did a Video tape for King Hussein—celebration of his 30th year as King. Most important of all—a meeting with deputy P.M. of Egypt Ali. He & his associates wanted a commitment from us to recognize & negotiate with the P.L.O. We pointed out that while they asked that of us—so far Egypt has refused to take any of the P.L.O. fighters in Beirut. It is Egypt as well as some other Arab states who are destroying the P.L.O. by refusing to take them in even temporarily while we settle the Lebanon problem. Rain & thunder but we made it to Camp David where it was also foggy & raining. Saw “The World According To Garp.”—good show.
