...Soviet armed forces "are in a position of highest military readiness to crush the aggressors." A Red Chinese broadcast accused the U.S. of "frantically preparing a new military aggression against Cuba." In his opening speech at the new session of the United Nations, Russia's Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko raged at the "war hysteria" and "campaign of hate" in the U.S., warned of war if the U.S. moves against Cuba...
...opening speech, U.S. Ambassador Adlai Stevenson expressed the hope that the 17th Assembly would "replace strident politics with quiet but determined diplomacy." Russia, of course, preferred the strident approach. In a ranting, two-hour tirade, Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko lashed at U.S. policy toward Cuba (see THE NATION). Crammed with 92 separate items, the agenda gives the Russians plenty of opportunity to exploit the Assembly as a propaganda forum...
...doggedly familiar questions returned in new forms. Berlin-more Soviet pressure; but Dean Rusk and Andrei Gromyko had made their disagreement explicit, so what more could be done? Disarmament-a meeting of 16 top-level officials around the rocking chair about whether to modify U.S. proposals for an H-test ban (see THE WORLD).

The President found the placid...

In the air corridors leading into the city from the West, Soviet MIGs buzzed U.S. planes five times within ten days; Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko told U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk in Geneva that Moscow intends to sign a peace treaty with East Germany. But Gromyko set no deadline, and chances are that when Moscow does sign the treaty, the Russians will retain some control in Berlin, since (the State Department reckons) the Russians would scarcely want to hand East Germany...
...face was slack, his eyes lacked sparkle. It took him a full day to recover anything like his old roadshow form. Then, in the Black Sea city of Varna (formerly called Stalin), he planted two small trees, after which he handed the shovel to startled Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. "I have helped build Communism," joked Nikita. "Now you've got to work. This isn't like writing notes." Khrushchev was visiting Moscow's earliest, most slavish European satellite because of economic and political troubles...
