...allies more often say nice things about Malenkov and Molotov than they do about Eisenhower and Dulles. I doubt that we have a single ally we really could depend on if the Reds let fly with an atomic bomb on New York coupled with a warning to London, Paris et al. to "stay neutral"-or else. And unless there is a drastic change, things stand to get worse rather than better. We are being pictured day in and day out, year in and year out, as wanting war while the Soviet Union cries for peace...
...Since the French first proposed it in 1950, the EDC blueprint (it has never been more than that) has divided nations, exasperated Parliaments, rocked alliances. Most of the world's top statesmen have striven for or against it: France's Monnet called EDC "inevitable," Russia's Molotov denounced it as "in tolerable," Germany's Adenauer regarded it as "indispensable."

In a formal note, handed to U.S. High Commissioner James Conant, East German Premier Otto Grotewohl not only accepted the offer but thanked the President. Bewildered East Germans were informed of the U.S.'s "friendly gesture" in the Communist press and radio...
...bouquets and basking in the plaudits of admirers-and those who suddenly found it wise to be admirers. After listening to Warsaw's official cheers, Red China's Chou En-lai and the Viet Minh's Pham Van Dong moved on to Moscow. There, Foreign Minister Molotov laid on a huge reception, attended by foreign diplomats, top Russian brass and correspondents. Afterward, they were honored with a lavish dinner presided over by Premier Malenkov himself, flanked by the man who jostles him for supreme power. First Party Secretary Nikita Khrushchev. The night was filled with vodka...
