RARELY had so perfunctory an occasion been so raptly watched. There in the White House to pay a courtesy call on the President and exchange a few ideas about world trade were Soviet Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin and Moscow's Foreign Trade Minister, Nikolai Patolichev. Every flicker of emotion on the faces of the visitors could be vastly portentous. Suddenly, newsmen were invited into the Oval Office. They were astonished. The Russians were grinning and laughing and exchanging lively banter with the President over how to say "friendship" in two languages...

In any case, Khrushchev continues...
Despite that unyielding stand, Israel's allies hope that Premier Golda Meir will finally agree to less than total withdrawal of Egyptian missiles. Soviet Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin and U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Joseph Sisco may hit upon an alternative when they resume their Middle East discussions in Washington. Or, perhaps Russia and Israel will work something out. The Soviets have initiated talks with Israel in Europe on the possibility of resuming diplomatic relations severed by the Russians at the end of the 1967 Arab-Israeli...
