      Meeting between CPSU leader Leonid Brezhnev and SED General Secretary Erich Honecker in the Crimea: the party leaders agree to take measures to prevent the SPD/FDP government under West German Chancellor Schmidt from being succeeded by the CDU at parliamentary elections in 1978.

He adds that attempts are also being made to "falsify our clear position" under the flag of Eurocommunism. less
