Kennedy and Nixon present their views about a summit conference during a presidential election debate in Washington DC.
The second Kennedy-Nixon Presidential Debate in Washington DC, United States. Alvin Spivak of United Press International asks Republican candidate U.S. Vice President Richard M Nixon about the possibility of occurrence of a summit conference after the presidential elections. Nixon states his willingness as the President to meet Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev or any other world leader if it would serve the cause of peace. He states that another summit conference will lead to negotiations at the diplomatic level and hamper peace. He concludes that he would hold another summit conference only after some preparation and assurance from Khrushchev that he wanted something meaningful from the conference. Democratic candidate Senator John F Kennedy states that before any summit conference the United States should build its military as well as economic strength. He talks about U.S. commitment to Berlin. He concludes and says that he agrees with Nixon statement in not meeting Mr. Khrushchev unless there were some agreements at the secondary level- foreign ministers and ambassadors - which would indicate that the meeting would have some hope of success, or a useful exchange of ideas.
During an election debate in the US, Kennedy and Richard Nixon talk about a hypothetical invasion by the Chinese Communists.
The third Kennedy-Nixon Presidential Debate in the United States. Charles Van Fremd from CBS News asks Republican candidate U.S. Vice President Richard M. Nixon that if he were the president would he launch a war if the Chinese Communists began an invasion of Quemoy (Kinmen) and Matsu Islands and if he would authorize the use of nuclear weapons if regular conventional forces failed to halt the invasion. Nixon answers and states that it is irresponsible for a presidential candidate to indicate the course of action and the weapons he would use in the event of such an attack. He states that he would not say in advance how the U.S. would respond. He states that the Chinese Communists do not want just Quemoy and Matsu or Formosa (Republic of China or Taiwan), but the world. He concludes that defense of the free world territories and not surrender will lead to the path of peace. Democratic candidate Senator John F. Kennedy talks about a treaty to defend Formosa (Taiwan) and the Pescadores Island. He states that the U.S. would meet its commitment to Formosa. He disagrees with Nixon's suggestion that the United States should go to war if Quemoy (Kinmen) and Matsu islands are attacked as the treaty does not include these two islands. He concludes and says that the U.S. would defend if Formosa (Taiwan) or the Pescadores Island is under attack.
