Letter, Yuri Zhukov, President of the Soviet Peace Committee, to Bruce Kent

This document was made possible with support from London School of Economics and Political Science & The Open University

In this letter, Zhukov sets out how, from the Soviet perspective, the Soviets have been working towards peace but the deployment of Cruise and Pershing missiles in Western Europe derailed arms control talks in Geneva and has made the international situation markedly worse. He invites the CND to work with the Soviet Union "to further our common struggle for a nuclear-free Europe."
