Nixon announced on March '2 B, in New Hampshire, that if elected President he would end the war in Vietnam. When pressed for details he said he r would do this by using the Russians. Following this he ' clammed up on the subect . until his interview with the Christian Science Monitor, in which he elaborated somewhat by explaining that he would use the Russians to call ' a big-pow- MERRY-GO-ROUN- to Hanoi in order to Induce peace. 2. Nixon is probably the one man in the United States least qualified to influence the Russians. POOR STANDING I know something about Nixons standing with the Ri&dans, having talked with Minister Foreign Gromyko and former Premier Nikita Khrushchev about him, together with other top Soviet leaders. Mr. Khrushchev told me how he had done his best to defeat Nixon in the I960 election, in which Nixon was running against John F. Kennedy: Just before the election, Khrushchev said, the American ambassador came to see me and wanted me to release the American RB-4Naval fliers as a gesture to show that our two countries could, get along together. I said, No, this would just help Nixon, and were voting for Kennedy. KITCHEN DEBATE' "And inasmuch as Kennedy won by a very narrow margin, we figure that we elected him. also told me Khrushchev c conference. 2 IMPORTANT POINTS . However, Mr. Nixon looked two important points: 1. The Johnson administra- tion has been trying for three years to persuade the sians to help negotiate peace Jn Vietnam. They have consistency shied away. One reason is . the Russians are gun-sh- y ' that the Chinese accuse then of being the stooges of the .United States. Recently has been a bit more coop-Vdifive, but its still a long . way from cutting off supplies Mos-'3eo- w five nations of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, now under the Soviet Union. D in Moscow which position Nixon publicized to his advantage in the United States. Khrushchev said that as he entered the American kitchen, he noticed a TV camera recording his and Nixons movements. "I wondered about it, said Khrushchev, "but I didnt say anything. However, after my talk with Nixon was over we learned that the TV tape was ruzhed to the Post Office and back to the United States, where most of wha I said was cut in order to make Nixon look good. It was then used for political purposes . . . LONG MEMORIES Nixon the volunteered remark to Khrushchev that the Congress was "foolish to pass this resolution. WILY NIKITA "I knew Congress had Just passed the resolution, Khrushchev told me, "but I wasnt planning to say anything about it However, when Nixon brought it up and described Congress as foolish, I asked iir : "Do you mean to call the members of Congress fools? Oh no, he said, very quickly. The the Russians got that Nixon was Impression in trying to be Moscow and in the United States. They have respect for those who are vigorous in their position, but they dont respect those who try to e one thing to one man and another to another man. All in all, they just don't like Nixon. pro-Russ- The original uncensored debate was by no means in Nixons favor. And the Russians didnt like the fact that the unfavorable portions were cut from the tape. They have long memories. The Russians also have long memories over another incident which occurred when Nixon visited Moscow in the summer of 1959. Just before had he an.
