...Couve de Murville took a jaunt with President de Gaulle to Rome and Madagascar. The U.S.'s Christian Herter got in some sailing on the choppy waters of Massachusetts Bay. For Britain's Selwyn Lloyd there were long English weekends at Chequers. Even Russia's Andrei Gromyko presumably took some dour relaxation, though he also returned to Geneva with Khrushchev's humiliating words ringing in his ear: "Gromyko only says what we tell him to say. At the next Geneva meeting, he will repeat what he has already told you. If he doesn...
...told seven junketing U.S. Governors) to touring Frol Kozlov ("Is a proposal to hold negotiations an ultimatum?"), mixed menacing warnings and unyielding basic positions with genial talk about how agreement was possible.

Delivering this "great new plan" to the Western foreign ministers in Geneva, dour Russian Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko suggested that Moscow might be willing to wait as long as 18 months, instead of a year. Either way it was an ultimatum, though Gromyko quibbled at calling it that. At this bleak point, 41 days after they had first assembled in Geneva, the Big Four foreign ministers at last...
