And across the grey border of Berlin was TIME'S Moscow Correspondent Israel Shenker, who found himself unexpectedly invited by the East German government to watch Nikita Khrushchev appear on his own side of the Berlin Wall.

The author was Aleksei Adzhubei, editor of Izvestia and son-in-law of Nikita Khrushchev. Beware your Western colleagues, said the suspicious editor. They preach the preposterous idea that there can be a peaceful coexistence of ideologies...
