Vishinsky asks Westerners for more time in Paris
In Paris on June 15, Soviet Foreign Minister Vishinsky asked Western ministers for extra time to respond to Western proposals on a transport trade pact for Germany. Western officials noted Vishinsky was unprepared for the secret foreign ministers meeting, while Bevin arrived as the session was canceled. Western sources say any accord should focus on economic essentials to keep trade moving, and political issues in Germany remain unsettled amid Berlin rail strikes and anti-Communist protests. Progress was reported on an independent Austrian treaty, with optimistic notes about its completion.
