...clear that the Soviet Union is not abdicating its influence in Asia to Peking. The Soviet leader attended a New Delhi ceremony at which his government extended $378 million credits to the Indians, and later he gave $250 million in low-interest loans to Indonesia. In Djakarta, Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko did not insist that the final communiqué include the usual plea for Red China's admission to the U.N., the Indonesians having called the suggestion "inopportune"* ; Peking has been giving them a bad time over their law curbing overseas Chinese traders. And in Calcutta, where Khrushchev stopped...
...Timekeepers. The real trouble began when Gronchi and Pella, in fashionable Italian style, arrived 15 minutes late for a business session with Khrushchev and Russian Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, found the Russians scowling heavily at their watches.

When showing off before such Soviet underlings as Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko and Ambassador to the U.S. "Smiling Mike" Menshikov, Khrushchev was full of bluster; in his private meetings with Ike he spoke quietly and seemed ready to do business...
...Ambassador Llewelyn Thompson and family were opening presents around the tree in Spaso House Christmas morning when the phone rang. It was the Soviet Foreign Ministry, asking the ambassador to drop by Andrei Gromyko's office. An hour later Ambassador Thompson received a letter from Premier Khrushchev, assuring President Eisenhower that Khrushchev would be glad to go to a summit meeting in Paris next spring, just so that he could get back to Moscow in time for May Day. The same message also went to the British and French...
