Brzezinski Says Dulles' Satellite Policy Aids Reds

Others at Research Center Find Weakness in Kremlin

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A free hand in Eastern Europe was "implicitly" granted to Russia by Secretary of State Dulles' "unsolicited statement of U.S. intervention," zbigniew Brzezinski, assistant professor of Government and research assistant in the Russian Research Center, asserted today.

Believing that Dulles' statement eliminated any doubts in Moscow as to what the United States "may or may not do," Brzezinski refused to comment on the Administration's foreign policy; "I don't think it exists," he explained. Zygmunt G. Gasiorowski, research fellow in the Russian Center, agreed that "American foreign policy is in a most difficult dilemma."

Gasiorowski predicted that the recent satellite uprisings made a return to the Stalinist form of government in the Soviet Union the "most probable development." Although he could see no member of the Presidium powerful enough to rule as Stalin did, the Russian suggested that Mikhail Suslov, a member of the Presidium, might be a possible candidate.

Dissent on Stalinism

A dissenting view was given by Jaroslaw Bilinskij, who called a return to Stalinism "improbable," since he could find no one "who could be another Stalin." Bilinskij asserted, however, that Nikita Khrushchev's position may have been weakened during recent weeks. Relating this to the position of the satellites, Bilinskij felt that even if the present government should topple, neither Poland nor Hungary would ever be given full independence.
