Cold War Shifts From Trenches To Maneuvers
Washington April 30 The Cold War has moved into a war of maneuver with peace talks and diplomacy shaping the balance of power. Dulles plans Europe trip possibly leading to an Austrian peace treaty while Red China signals peace in the Far East. Eisenhower has letters with Zhukov and contact with free world leaders as the Soviets face a changing leadership and a hardened alliance structure. The era’s surviving issues remain, but methods and weapons evolve. Two key shifts noted are Stalin’s death and France Germany rearmament agreements drawing the Western alliance closer to sealing a containment system.
