...Europe, the full recognition of Kennedy's youth surprised. At 43, Kennedy could be the son of almost any of the world's major aging leaders. He can spot Khrushchev, Mao and Macmillan 23 years, De Gaulle 26 and Adenauer...
...stepped from the Soviet jetliner at Vnukovo, Chairman Liu raised his arms in salute to Chairman Khrushchev. But on the eve of Liu's departure, Peking had seized on the pretext of the publication of a fourth volume of Mao Tse-tung's selected works to print an "introduction"' by General Fu Chung, in which the general pointedly quoted old Mao dicta on war and peace and, inferentially, challenged Khrushchev's favorite doctrine of peaceful coexistence.

In the Middle East, where Mao's recognition of the Algerian rebel government helped to woo Arab sentiment, Hsinhua has displaced Tass as the chief fountainhead of Communist "news." This year for the first time Red China set up its own big separate industrial exhibition in Baghdad. Many Iraqi nationalists say that it was Peking's Communist agents, not Russia's, who whipped up the local Reds to bloody excesses...
