Diplomatic advisor Antonio Badini's report from the meeting between Craxi and Armacost regarding international terrorism, situation in Libya and Syria, and deterioration of East-West relations.

During the Armacost-Zia talks, the Pakistanis tell US officials that they will confidentially share any new procurement regulations with them.

Only a few weeks after Pervez’s arrest, Under Secretary of State Armacost traveled to Pakistan for wide ranging discussions with General Zia, but with a special focus on nuclear procurement and the uranium enrichment program.

Zia argued that Washington was trying to “get one Pakistani in order to hang the entire government.”
