De Gaulle Eyes Moscow Talks Amid Europe Shift
Paris dispatch notes Charles de Gaulle visiting the Soviet Union during a ten day itinerary. Officials say the trip centers on political talks rather than sightseeing and aims to ease U.S. influence in Europe, explore cooperation with Moscow, and test ground for possible shifts in NATO relations. De Gaulle plans no political agreements but seeks leverage for France’s independent stance and a larger Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals. The buildup reflects two nations pursuing broader East West détente and a gradual NATO reassessment.
