No Concession Gained or Given Kennedy Says
President Kennedy said after his Vienna talks with Khrushchev that the two days were very sober and immensely useful but produced no advantages or concessions. Khrushchev spoke of peaceful communist aims but insisted on a Soviet veto on inspections, with no major decisions or spectacular progress. Kennedy emphasized there was no war talk and noted the meeting was not intended as a summit, though he called it a fine trip home to Paris.
