Translated by Gary Goldberg. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/113339 Summary: Khrushchev reports on the proceedings at the United Nations in New York and his delegation's travel plans for returning to Moscow. He mentions his approval of plans to purchase buildings in New York for Ukrainian and Belorussian missions to the UN. He also suggests that they purchase an American car to bring back for the benefit of Soviet auto designers. He concludes with criticisms of the United States and New York. Original Language: Russian Contents: English Translation TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CPSU CC PRESIDIUM Everything here is moving toward conclusion of the work and we are beginning preparations to depart. We are already beginning to count the days and it seems that it is still long before the day we leave. This is a good sign.
