Reagan says Soviets frame of mind shifts for talks
President Reagan said the Soviet Union is in a different frame of mind and back at the negotiating table, but aides cautioned that this does not guarantee an early summit with Mikhail Gorbachev. Larry Speakes said any meeting would have to wait until the Soviets are ready for serious discussions and ready to entertain the idea. Reagan noted no unilateral disarmament amid Soviet buildup and predicted progress toward arms reduction. He flies to Quebec Sunday for talks with Prime Minister Mulroney, including plans on acid rain research.
