Khrushchev, 11 December 1961,” December 11, 1961, History and Public Policy Program Digital Archive, APRF, Fond 52, Opis 1, Delo 598, List 79-94. Published in ''Istochnik'', (Moscow) No. 6, 2003, pp. 122-127. Translated for CWIHP by Gary Goldberg. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/113340 Summary: Krushchev dictates his ideas for a general memorandum that he will give to Kroll. The memorandum will describe the situation in Germany and the possible development of Soviet-West German relations. It should demonstrate to West Germany the economic and political advantages of improving its relationship with the Soviet Union. Khrushchev describes the potential for West Germany's allies to capitalize on Cold War tensions in Germany and concludes that better relations with the Soviet Union will make West Germany a more active force in East-West relations and lead to a more stable balance of power. Original Language: Russian Contents: English Translation First I would like to talk so that you understand [me] and then I will dictate what the nature of this document should be. I would consider it necessary to prepare a memorandum, a memorandum of an impersonal nature; neither from me nor the MID [Ministry of Foreign Affairs], nor from anyone to anyone. This memorandum is to describe the essence of the situation that has now developed in the world and especially the question of Germany, the solution to the German question, and the further development of relations between the Soviet Union and the Federal Republic of Germany.

    RESTRICTED GENERAL AGREEMENT ON L/1633 TARIFFS AND TRADE 24 November 1961 Limited Distribution CONTRACTING PARTIESOriginal: English Nineteenth Session NEW ZEALAND - RENEGOTIATION OF SCHEDULE XIII Request for Further Extension With reference to item 40 in the agenda for the nineteenth session, the Government of New Zealand has submitted the following communication: "By their Decision of 4 June 1960 the CONTRACTING PARTIES suspended the application of Article II of the General Agreement to the extent necessary to enable New Zealand, subject to specified conditions, to introduce a new Customs Tariff (involving changes in Schedule XIII) without fulfilling the requirement of prior negotiation. "By their further Decision of 18 November 1960 the CONTRACTING PARTIES extended until 31 December 1961 the period during which effect might be given to the New Zealand tariff pursuant to the Decision of 4 June 1960 and during which the consequent negotiations and consulta- tions should be completed. "Information concerning the changes in Schedule XIII was submitted to contracting parties on 26 September and the New Zealand delegation has been ready to undertake negotiations since 2 October. While every effort will be made to complete the negotiations by 31 December 1961 it seems unlikely, judging from the experience of other countries that this will be possible. "It is necessary therefore to request the further extension of the Decision of 4 June 1960 to 31 December 1962." If the CONTRACTING PARTIES agree to extend the waiver, in compliance with the
