U.S. should accept Brezhnev offer The Soviet offer for a meeting between Presidents Reagan and Brezhnev, deemed a possible "ploy" by White House Press Secretary Jim Brady, is a test for the Reagan Administration's foreign policy-makers. Reagan's budget plan has one clear motive: beefing up the U.S. military. The Soviets want to know where the money is going and how it will affect relations between the two countries. They may want to make Reagan look like an imperialist, according to Brady's line of thinking. Policies advocated by Reagan and Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig only fuel arguments. Brezhnev has perceived "candidly bellicose calls and statements designed to poison the atmosphere of relations between our two countries." He is speaking about the current confrontation policy, which the Reagan administration is using to make the U.S. look strong. Brezhnev has heard Haig threaten him concerning Soviet activity in Poland, and has probably scrutinized Haig's call for a code of conduct for the Soviet Dom, call time out Union. Haig appears enthusiastic about the Brezhnev proposal. Dear Dom Perno, "He was hot," the man said.
