He replies: "The achievement of a Non-proliferation Treaty." Newsmen continue to press him about prospects of success in negotiations with the Russians.

The camera also captures scenes outdoors as the car drives along the scenic lake front drive to the Palace of Nations. A daytime view from overlooking hill of the Palace of Nations and Lake Geneva.
