DAILY BRIEF
I. THE COMMUNIST BLOC
USSR: In his speech to the Hungarian party congress on
1 December, Khrushchev maintained the moderate and flex-
ible line which has characterized his foreign policy pronounce-
ments since his visit to the US. He denied "fabrications" in
the Western press that the USSR no longer desires an early
summit meeting. He repeated the warning contained in the
TASS statement of 18 November that Moscow will sign a sep-
arate peace treaty with East Germany if the West refuses to
conclude a treaty with both German states, but avoided any sug-
gestion that such unilateral action is imminent. This speech,
like his last two foreign policy speeches, contained evidence
that Khrushchev is concerned over Peiping's challenge to Mos-
cow's ideological primacy and hegemony in the Communist
world and the Chinese Communists' apparent rnigcrivino�Q gar ding his peaceful coexistence line.

Communist China: The absence from Peiping of several
key officials suggests that a meeting of top party leaders is in
progress or may be imminent. Mao Tse-tung and his first
deputyp Liu Shao-chi� have been away from the capital since
late October and may have been joined in November by Pre-
0 I mier Chou En-lai and other politburo members. The US Con-
sulate General in Hong Kong believes that plans for a new "leap
forward" in 1960 and the disposition of "rightist" critics of the
regime would be likely topics for discussion.

II. ASIA-AFRICA
Iran-USSR: The Iranian ambassador in Moscow has re-
pt 0 quested another meeting with Khrushchev "as soon as possible"
