Key Facts
President Reagan makes a Radio Address to the Nation on Nicaragua.
President Reagan prepares for the visit by Prime Minister of India Rajiv Gandhi.
Sat. dawned foggy & rainy then about 10 A.M. cleared up & the rest of the day was beautiful. Having turned off the horses we ended up by the pool. N.S.C. kept sending intelligence memos having to do with P.M. Ghandis visit & SALT II & our allies position. They want us to continue abiding by it. Tomorrow Mon. I forward my decision to the Cong. We will abide by SALT II to the extent the Soviets do—which means we wont destroy a Poseidon Sub when the next Trident is launched in September. Back at the W.H. & saw a classified film on P.M. Gandhi. These films are good preparation for his visit. They give you a sense of having met him before.
