Even five years ago, a meeting between a Pope and a Soviet foreign minister would have been unthinkable; now Gromyko and Paul were earnestly discussing peace and the dangers in Southeast Asia. After the audience, the Marxist carried away a gold medal commemorating the Ecumenical Council. But no pictures were taken to commemorate the meeting. The Vatican considers Gromyko too controversial to be seen with His Holiness...
