The summit has not brought the millennium, peace, but it has brought some tremendously significant new conditions in the world. Reports TIME Correspondent John Shaw from Moscow: "A move from the 'absence of war' toward something not only safe but fruitful cannot be achieved easily and certainly not by remote control or through ambassadors and technicians, no matter how able. It requires the look into the eyes, hours of talking that reveal leaders and their motives to one another. Someone has written that 'Russia is not to be grasped with the mind. It is to be believed.' Perhaps Richard Nixon did not become as philosophical as that during this week. But his Russian hosts, after the longest talks they have ever held with any nonCommunist, have more sense of what America is about than any previous Russian rulers."
