O lovitură de imagine pentru Nicolae Ceauşescu. Vizita preşedintelui Richard Nixon la Bucureşti, 2-3 august 1969
An image success for Nicolae Ceausescu. The visit of president Richard Nixon in Bucharest, in August 1969

Summary/Abstract: Being consistent in our favorite field study of Romanian-American relations during the communist regime, we chose to investigate and highlight – to the extent of our modest possibilities – the benefits that Nicolae Ceausescu, particularly, and Romania, in general, had from the American President’s visit, Richard Nixon, on 2-3 August 1969. We sought to identify the most relevant articles from two prestigious U.S. publications Time and New York Times, we tried to exploit two archival documents relating to the official talks of the two leaders, but also relating to a further meeting of Ceausescu with Leonid Brezhnev and we highlighted some references to this event in a memoir of Henry Kissinger. To a certain extent, we used the daily „Scînteia” and the weekly „Lumea”.
