Gromyko assails U S buildup as obsessive threat
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko denounced the U S military buildup as a pathological obsession in a speech in Stockholm before a meeting with Secretary of State George Shultz. He warned that resuming arms talks is pointless while NATO deploys Pershing missiles in Europe and condemned Reagan era budget increases. He was set to meet Shultz at the Soviet Embassy, the first high level contact in four months.
