1. On Friday night I attended a dinner with the Argentine Ambassador,
and with two Ministers of his Embassy. We spoke about many issues, but
the two which we spent the most time on were the current political situation
in Argentina and U ,S . policy on human rights . They told me that they were
well aware of President Carter's great concern for human rights, that they
were presently undergoing a serious political problem in Argentina, and
they hoped that the United States would understand, and that they wanted
to continue to have good relations and a dialogue with the United States.
Privately one Minister told me that he personally hoped that the U ,S .
commitment to human rights would not waiver.
