President Carter reportedly believes an early meeting with Soviet leader Brezhnev is unlikely as Brezhnev prefers delaying a summit until a broader strategic arms accord can be pre negotiated. Officials doubt a new SALT treaty can be reached before the interim agreement expires Oct. 1. Brezhnev told U S Ambassador Toon that U S policy toward the Soviet Union does not foster constructive relations, while Western sources note talks on trade and human rights.
