Pineau pointed to SEATO's recent naval and military maneuvers off Thailand. "Do you really think that, in this atomic era, this handful of ships will give the impression that the West is the leader of the world? The Bulganin-Khrushchev tour of India was much more important. If the West does not make an effort in the direction of propositions of peace, we shall be beaten first on the field of propaganda and then on that of policy...
...President's move, decided upon at Gettysburg weeks ago, was announced right on the heels of Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin's bombastic boast that the Soviet Union now leads the world in the peaceful use of atomic energy. But its real significance lay in reaffirming the humanitarian position taken by the U.S. as a matter of principle long before the Russians knew how to split an atom. Said the President: "This action demonstrates the confidence of the United States in the possibilities of developing nuclear power for civilian uses. It is an earnest of our faith that...
...foreign policy line (also approved by unanimous da) has been shaping up since the visit of Khrushchev, Bulganin and Mikoyan to Belgrade last spring. It aims as aggressively as ever at subjecting the world to Communism, but without Stalin's rigid preachments about the "inevitability" of violence: his successors are out to make Communists look more peaceful and disarming to the neutrals of Asia and the uncommitted Arab world.

There was more politics than persistence in Shtykov's comeback. The man he replaced was Nikolai N. Shatalin, who had been in the top Moscow secretariat when Georgy Malenkov was Premier, but had been literally sent to Siberia when Khrushchev and Bulganin took over. Shtykov's return to favor is the latest in a series of significant changes in the Communist Party superstructure in the past month (others: in the Russian Republic, Lithuania, Uzbekistan). This sudden flurry of shake-ups apparently represents Khrushchev's increased grasp of the party machinery on the eve of this week...
More and more, the lure of neutralism as practiced by India and Egypt, which seemed to get the best of both sides, was beginning to tell on other nations hitherto friendly only to the West. Sensing this change of heart, Russia's Premier Bulganin last week dropped a strong hint that Moscow "would like to have relations with Pakistan no less friendly than those with India" and might even be willing to give it some economic aid. It was a pity, he added, that Pakistan's partnership in the Baghdad pact had brought it "to difficult internal straits...
