Khrushchev remarked that the argument was sparked arbitrarily and had taken place after an "abundant feast with cognac" and that "in those days we didn't take that kind of conversation seriously."
Hruščov je zabilježio da je rasprava izazvana samovoljno i dogodila se nakon "obilne gozbe s konjakom" i da "u to vrijeme nisu shvaćali takvu vrstu razgovora ozbiljnom".
