“The Department of State released…Foreign Relations of the United States, 1969-1976, Volume XII, Soviet Union, January 1969-October 1970, the first of five volumes in the Nixon-Ford subseries, 1969-1976, which document U.S.-Soviet relations worldwide and reflect the global nature of the Cold War. The volumes on the Soviet Union serve as a guidepost to fuller coverage of topics in other Foreign Relations volumes where U.S.-Soviet interests intersected. Extensive use of extracts and editorial notes highlighting and summarizing related material in other volumes in the subseries that impact on U.S.-Soviet relations, provides a core history of the Cold War for this period, as seen through the prism of U.S.-Soviet global relations. The volume released…begins with the initial contacts between Nixon administration appointees and Soviet officials in January 1969, and ends with the resolution of a dispute over a Soviet attempt to establish a submarine base in Cienfuegos Bay, Cuba, in early October 1970, in contravention of Washington’s view of the U.S.-USSR understanding that ended the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962…The volume and this press release are available on the Office of the Historian website…”
