West Expects Lengthy Berlin Negotiations in 62
Western powers plan proposals to the Soviet Union early next year aimed at strengthening West Berlin security and ensuring free access from West Germany. They may include an internationally controlled highway corridor between West Berlin and West Germany, tied to exploratory talks for a broader East West conference, though officials warn negotiations will be long and difficult. Kennedy suggested limited troops and an international Autobahn administration to keep goods and people moving, noting 15 years of peace and a goal to bind the area for another 15 years.
