Kennedy Rules Out Negotiations Under Ultimata
President Kennedy told non aligned nations the United States will not enter talks with Russia under threats. In a White House letter to Mali and Indonesia he says negotiations may succeed without ultimatums, but the U.S. will not discuss abdication of responsibilities or surrender of modalities. He urges careful preparation for talks to avoid failure, notes Soviet-initiated crisis, and vows to meet force if used, while seeking unity and self determination for all nations. The country plans underground tests only after a full review and provocation.
