The Nation - News from Feb. 18, 1985

U.N. Ambassador Jeane J. Kirkpatrick, fending off questions about sexism and strife at the White House, dismissed suggestions that she is leaving her job because of conflicts with Secretary of State George P. Shultz. Kirkpatrick, in an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” appeared relaxed and smiled frequently as she answered a variety of questions about U.S. foreign policy and political machinations in the Reagan Administration. Kirkpatrick rejected the view she was too abrasive for the taste of other major foreign policy advisers to President Reagan and emphasized, “I don’t have any problem with George Shultz.”
