SECRET

AGREED MINUTE OF CONVERSATION BETWEEN PRESIDENT CARTER,

SECRETARY VANCE AND FOREIGN MINISTER DAYAN

New York, 4-5 October 1977

The list of names of the proposed Palestinian Arab members of the Unified Arab Delegation to the Geneva Peace Conference will be sought by the United States, which will provide the list to Israel. The U.S. has been informed of Israel's position that members of the PLO are not acceptable as participants in the Unified Arab Delegation to the Geneva Peace Conference. Israel will screen the list, using reasonable criteria, and will indicate to the U.S. any individuals on the list which it objects to. The U.S. will discuss those individuals with the Arab delegation seeking to eliminate those individuals from the delegation. It is understood that Israel can refuse to attend the Conference if individual Palestinian Arabs it objects to are present.
