Soviet Union pushes UN arms talks and summit plan
Moscow seeks a special UN General Assembly session to address stalled disarmament negotiations. Gromyko insists on resuming international talks and denounces the NATO ministerial proposal as unacceptable. Khrushchev calls for an East-West summit to resolve armament issues and urges non interference in internal affairs. NATO replies that the proposals lack tests, inspection, and force reductions. The Supreme Soviet ends its session with a ban on nuclear weapons and a non aggression pact among NATO and Warsaw Pact nations.
