Their troika partner, Aleksei Kosygin, cut short a state visit to Sweden to join them there for talks with party leaders from Hungary, Poland, Bulgaria and East Germany. The Communist summit, the third of its kind in four months, was the Soviet response to the onrush of reform in Czechoslovakia, and its convening was the climax of a week of ominous moves against the Czechoslovaks.

...without a word to Adams-and ordered more than a million batteries built to its own design. Sure that he had been bilked, Bert went to court. Six other men, who had backed the invention, joined the suit. Not until 1966 did the U.S. Supreme Court rule that Bert's patent had indeed been infringed.
