July 2, 1961	Record of a Conversation [between] N. S. Khrushchev and F. Roberts, British Ambassador in the USSR concerning the Signing of a Peace Treaty with the Two German States The two parties discuss the national exhibitions in Moscow and London, and opportunities for trade between England and the Soviet Union.

The two discuss the Soviet exhibition in FRG, and Kroll suggests to Khrushchev that the USSR should try and reach an agreement with the GDR soon.
