Summary/Abstract: In the beginning of the ’60s, Romania began to develop a new policy towards the Soviet Union. At the origin of the Romanian-Soviet dispute was the refusal of the economic integration plans launched by COMECON. The Romanian opposition was the main reason for Khruschev’s visit to Bucharest in June 1962. During his visit the Soviet leader did not make any attempt to mask his unhappiness with Romanian economic progress, in both industrial and agricultural fields. From this perspective, for the Romanian leaders, Khruschev’s criticism was an unacceptable way to sort out the differences between the fraternal countries.
