Speech by the Soviet Foreign Minister (Andrei A. Gromyko)

6 Apr 1983
Description: This is the transcript of a speech given by Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko at the 1983 meeting of the Warsaw Pact's Committee of Ministers of Foreign Affairs (CMFA) in Prague. He describes the state of the bilateral disarmament talks with the US, stating that there is no prospect for an agreement.
