1. I shall be delighted to meet you anywhere in North Africa, but I hope we need not wait till the twentieth. Strongly recommend sea voyage to Anfa which we know, moving on to Pyramids if and when convenient. By all means ask Chiang. If UJ refuses, then Molotov [Page 42] with a Russian military mission would do. It seems to me fine progress has been made by Hull and Eden at Moscow and still more on the Russian southern front.
