Speech by the Czechoslovak Foreign Minister (Bohuslav Chňoupek)

19 Apr 1984
Description: This is the transcript of a speech given by Czechoslovak Foreign Minister Bohuslav Chňoupek at the 1984 meeting of the Warsaw Pact's Committee of Ministers of Foreign Affairs (CMFA) in Budapest. He comments on the US deployment of intermediate-range nuclear missiles in Europe and calls for more open and honest inter-bloc dialog. Chňoupek supports the Polish idea of extending the Warsaw Treaty. Despite the counter-deployment of Soviet missiles in Czechoslovakia and East Germany, he argues in favor of further disarmament.
