Moscow reports say Soviet President Nikolai Podgorny was abruptly removed from the Politburo in a secret Kremlin session. Western diplomats view the act as likely against his will, signaling a potential shift in power as Brezhnev seeks room at the top. The move could strip Podgorny of ceremonial state duties when the Supreme Soviet convenes on June 16.
