...week, there was an unaccustomed outpouring of bonhomie. In a unique display of diplomatic cordiality, the Soviet and U.S. ambassadors in the Finnish capital issued joint invitations, printed in Russian and English, to a cocktail party for Finnish leaders and the two delegations to the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT). In the unlikely surroundings of Helsinki's Kaivohuone restaurant, which usually echoes to the beat of restrained rock and the coo of unescorted birds at the bar, U.S. Chief Delegate Gerard Smith and his Soviet counterpart, Deputy Foreign Minister Vladimir Semyonov, clinked champagne glasses and exchanged pledges of good...

The U.S. is probably ahead in MIRV development and could deploy the weapon by late 1970. In ABM, on the other hand, the Soviet Union has ringed Moscow with some missiles, while the U.S. is still in the research stage on its Safeguard...
Disarmament experts make only guarded estimates about how long it might take to reach an arms agreement -if indeed it can be reached at all.
