208-PU-173-F-8: In line with his desire that government heads throughout the world meet frequently to talk as friends and exchange views in order to better understand each other’s problems, President Franklin D. Roosevelt conferred with the three monarchs on his journey from the Big Three conference at Yalta, Crimea. The meetings were on USS Quincy (CA 71) anchored in Great Bitter Lake, near Cairo, through which the Suez Canal passes. Conferring with the President were King Farouk of Egypt; King Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia, and Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia. Here, on the deck of Quincy are, left to right: John G. Winant, U.S. Ambassador to Great Britain; President Roosevelt; Secretary of State Edward H. Stettinus, Jr., and Harry Hopkins, February 14, 1945. U.S. Army Signal Corps Photograph.
