{Russian Expansiveness}[14th May 1970]


[Redbook1:155][19700514:1205]{Russian Expansiveness}[14th May 1970]

12.05 pm Thursday 14th May 1970

            I am beginning to wonder if my view of a few days ago concerning Russian aims in the Middle East is not over-kind to the Russians.  If the Russians won the Middle East the way to Africa would lie open before them and Western Europe would be denied the short route to the Far East by land, sea and air.  That proves nothing itself; but the Russians must know it too.
