DAILY BRIEF
I. THE COMMUNIST BLOC
*Warsaw Pact Meeting: The declaration adopted on
4 February by the Warsaw Pact members meeting in Mos-
cow suggests that the main purpose of the meeting was to
provide a demonstration of Bloc solidarity and support for
the USSR's positions on questions that Khrushchev has pro-
posed for discussion at the summit conference in May. The
generally moderate declaration hailed Moscow's decision to
reduce its forces but stopped short of announcing any reduc-
tions in Eastern European satellite forces or in Soviet forces
stationed in these countries. A summary of the communique
issued simultaneously hinted at further moves in this direc-
tion, however, by stating that the Pact members had "co-
ordinated their future actions" toward "consolidating the re-
laxation of international tensions." Khrushchev's speech to
the conference, which has not yet been published, may pro-
vide more specific indications of Bloc initiatives prior to thp
summit meeting.
II. ASIA-AFRICA
India-USSR: Soviet President Voroshilov's 18-day visit
to India--from 20 January to 5 February--has had little im-
pact. His party of about 70, including First Deputy Premier
Kozlov, First Deputy Foreign Minister Kuznetsov, and Pre-
sidium member Mme. Furtseva, made an extensive tour of
the country. Indian officials and the press went through the
motions of welcome and entertainment but without enthusiasm.
To Indian officials, the forthcoming visit of Khrushchev and
the possibility that he will contribute to settling the Sino-Indian

II. ASIA-AFRICA
Burmese Parliamentary Election Prospects
Burmese voters go to the polls on 6 February to select
a new civilian government to succeed the incumbent military
regime of Premier Ne Win. The army, which assumed pow-
er in October 1958 because the government had disintegrated
following a split in the ruling Anti-Fascist People's Freedom
League (AFPFL), is voluntarily relinquishing office to the
politicians. Active army personnel are not standing for of-
fice.
The two major parties in the election are the "Clean"
AFPFL under former Premier U Nu and the "Stable" AFPFL
headed by his former deputies, Ba Swe and Kyaw Nyeine In-
formed opinion predicts that the "Clean" party will carry a
majority of the 250 constituencies. In the absence of major
policy issues, the personality of U Nu is expected to be the
determining factor. Independents and candidates of the Com-
munist-dominated National United Front and various ethnic
minority parties are expected to win relatively few seats.
A Nu victory may create some difficulties in Western
relations with Burma. Under Ne Win's regime there has been
a slight swing toward the West, but U Nu is a strict neutral-
ist. He has bitterly accused the West, and the United States
in particular, of financing his opposition.
