The spokesman said that the foreign secretary was pleased with the op- portunity to obtain a first- hand insight into Syria's official thinking from Khaddam. The Syrian dip- lomat invited the Foreign Secretary to visit Syria and the invitation was ac- cepted.

Earlier in the year, President Ford notified Congress. he was providing Syria with $25 million in agriculture as- sistance. No action was taken to disapprove of that request as the Congressmen did not want to affect Kissinger's efforts for an interim agree- ment at that time.
