Bobby watched the silver haired gentleman as he entered his office. He stood up and shook Anatoly Dobrynin's hand. He pointed toward a heavy leather chair. " Have a seat".
The man sat down. " Thank You Mr Attorney General".
" So Mr Ambassador". Bobby sighed. " This meeting is at your request".
" The Premier is concerned about what Senator Keating has been saying?".
" Senator Keating is a talker". Bobby frowned. " Midterm elections are coming up in November".
" We are supplying the Cuban people with the means to better defend themselves".
" I will be blunt Mr Ambassador". Bobby's voice lowered. " Does that include ground to ground missiles?".
" Please reassure President Kennedy that only ground to air antiaircraft batteries are being placed".
Bobby gave Dobrynin a stern look. " Which means?".
" They are short range". The Ambassador grinned. " They will do no harm to the United States".
