On the Situation in Poland (1)

(Molotov, Serov, Zhukov, Mikoyan, Pervukhin, Saburov, Kaganovich, Voroshilov, Suslov, Furtseva, Malenkov)

Cde. Khrushchev:
Taking account of the circumstances, we should refrain from military intervention. We need to display patience. (Everyone agrees with this.)

Translator's Note:

1 Unfortunately, only a small fragment of this session has been found. It is possible that missing pages will turn up in other parts of the Malin collection, but for now the brief (but important) section below is all that is available.

Khrushchev calls for patience and a refrain from military intervention in Poland. The entire Presidium supports Krushchev.
