Khrushchev on Castro Laos and wars and tests
Khrushchev said Castro is not a proven Communist and appears unstable while Kennedy pressed for Laos talks and he would assist. He outlined three war types predicting no nuclear war, but a conventional surge and potential popular uprisings with Soviet sympathy. He resisted a test ban and showed no alarm at broader weapon proliferation.
