Duping the Soviets - The Farewell Dossier
"We communists have to string along with the capitalists for a while. We need their credits, their agriculture, and their technology. But we are going to continue massive military programs and by the middle 1980s we will be in a position to return to a much more aggressive foreign policy designed to gain the upper hand in our relationship with the West."
Leonid Brezhnev. Remarks in 1971 to the Politburo at the beginning of détente.
