41. Memorandum of a Conversation Between Prime Minister Mollet and Secretary of State Dulles, Washington, February 26, 1957¹

Washington, February 26, 1957

At the dinner² I gave for Mollet I spoke to him about French intentions with respect to nuclear weapons. He said that so far as he personally was concerned he would never approve of France going into this. However, he felt that France should reserve the right to do so.
