From Kowalczyk's conversation with the Deputy Director in the Far Eastern Department of Foreign Ministry – Dubrovsky
[…]
The Chinese propaganda against the Soviet Union has intensified following the Tenth CCP Congress. In recent days, they have published anti-Soviet materials in great amounts. Their content is increasingly harsher. According to Soviet comrades, the intensification in this propaganda is dictated by China's internal needs (economic difficulties, factional strife, preparations for the People's Council meeting, and so on). At the same time, this constitutes “a scarecrow” for those who would like to ease tensions in Sino-Soviet relations.
