...Jerusalem. An ordained rabbi and graduate lawyer, Herzog was an intelligence expert in the underground before Israel became independent. Afterward he quietly served a succession of prime ministers. He was David Ben-Gurion's closest counselor during the 1956 Suez-Sinai campaign, and following the war used his cordial relationship with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles to help resolve U.S.-Israeli differences. Herzog was director-general of the Premier's office for Levi Eshkol and Golda Meir, service that earned him the sobriquet "the Henry Kissinger of Israel...

Prime Minister Indira Gandhi wrote Chou En-lai to congratulate him on China's entering the U.N., and Chou sent a warm reply: "May the friendship between the peoples of China and India grow and develop daily." It was the first such high-level correspondence since the 1962 Sino-Indian conflict, when the two nations broke off commercial ties and reduced their diplomatic relations to the charge-d'affaires level.
