AP Special Correspondent William L. Ryan argues that a Castro victory in the Cuban crisis could undermine U.S. gains in Latin America and give Castro a propaganda win. He questions whether Castro’s stance reflects real independence or a Kremlin-backed masquerade meant to pressure the United States over Soviet bombers and Cuban inspections. The piece hints at collusion between Castro and Soviet leaders and notes Khrushchev’s pledge to remove offensive weapons and allow inspections if binding steps are taken.

Khrushchev offers pullout with many conditions

Soviet Premier Khrushchev sent Kennedy a pullout offer for Soviet jet bombers in Cuba but attached so many conditions that a settlement seems unlikely. The proposal, received days ago, is under discussion in negotiations likely in New York.
