" The fundamental objective of this week's meetings was to give Mr. Gromkyo an opportunity to hear from the president himself as well as the secretary of state, our views in detail on the most pressing problems of our tune," the official said. " That was the key objective " Now, if that produces a Soviet decision to re-engage in a constructive dialogue with us, that would be an important achievement But that is up to the Soviets The important point is we got our view across " After Reagan's meeting with Gromyko Friday, the administration said progress was made in U.
