...vast committee room, the Atomic Energy Commission held its first meeting since September. It set up a control committee to go ahead with the '"majority plan" (the U.S. plan), blueprinting the structure and operations of an international control body, even down to financing. Russia's Andrei Gromyko, the deadpan diplomat, did not vote against this project, but he scorned it. Since Russia's current line is to do nothing and to blame the U.S. for the fact that nothing is done, Gromyko did not want people to get the idea that the AEC was gaining ground...
...charge that he danced to the U.S. or any other fiddle. Against U.S. opposition, he had maneuvered the Ukraine into the Security Council and pushed through the Assembly a modified and generalized Soviet resolution against "warmongering." He kidded the Russians out of their delaying verbosity so skillfully that Andrei Gromyko reportedly admitted: "He is anti-Russian but he is also objective and impartial when presiding."

Several weeks ago, on the morning of the voting, Masaryk, accompanied by Russia's Andrei Gromyko, turned up in the office of the Assembly President, Brazil's suave Oswaldo Aranha, and announced that Czechoslovakia did not choose to run. Gromyko said that the Ukraine would be a candidate instead. Latin American delegates then agreed to support the Ukraine's Dmitri Manuilsky. This did not indicate any love of Russia south of the border (see LATIN AMERICA). The Latins assumed that the U.S. was willing to see the Security Council go on voting...
