Arms Parleys Not Just For Reds America
Secretary of State Dulles said the United States will prioritize allied views in disarmament talks and will not discard them to rush an agreement with the Soviet Union. He noted some topics could be discussed informally with Russia, but current talks are not purely U S Russia negotiations. Dulles cited possible delays from Stassen’s return and London talks, and stressed allied cooperation amid Britain and France concerns over private talks with Valerian Zorin. He outlined procedural hurdles for a zone involving Canada, and said U S would seek unanimous agreement for first-stage disarmament involving Europe. He warned the United States would gain more protection than the Soviet Union, and suggested support for a shared TV radio program exchange rather than Khrushchev’s panel appearance.
