Schoenman thanks U Thant for "finding time" to meet with him. He informs U Thant that the Chinese are willing to compromise on the issue of civilian posts in the Sino-Indian boundary dispute, and that Israel will consider the question of Arab refugees as separate from "... an overall settlement of Arab-Israeli differences."

Schoenman asks Thant for a message for a meeting in London on 9 July to be convened by BR, re Laos and Vietnam.
