A file of speeches and correspondence on Bulgarian-Soviet relations.

The British legation in Sofia speculated that the lack of a communiqué following the visit may have meant that there was disagreement. The file also contains the translation of a speech made by the Soviet leader, Nikita Khrushchev, at the Seventh Congress of the Bulgarian Communist Party, in which he stressed the good relations between the Bulgarian and Soviet parties, and attacked revisionism and "theoreticians.
