Harriman on Russia and Vietnam in a Changing World
The book by Harriman draws on his long public service including roles from ambassador to Russia to negotiator in Paris. He describes Stalin as imperialist and aims for world revolution, contrasts Khrushchev and Kosygin, and argues most Soviet actions arise from domestic concerns. He condemns Vietnamization and urges a prompt troop withdrawal and Paris talks with the NLF for a peace deal.
