Malenkov's speech also contains elements that tend to give the impression
of greater Soviet intransigence in the international sphere. Several state-
ments implicitly threaten the U.S. -Western "imperialist camp" with catastrophe
in the event of another war. For example: "Can there be any doubt. that
war will become the grave not merely for separate capitalist states but for
world capitalism as a whole?" His denunciations of the "imperialist camp" in
some cases appear to carry greater emotional impact than those of Molotov and
Zhdanov; and in any event, they are equally intense. His denunciation of
specific countries concentrates almost exclusively on the United States. And
he slights the concept of "peaceful cooperation and coexistence" among
differing socio-economic systems.
Other interesting differences include: Malenkov's reference to the
Central Committee around which the Party is rallied--the first time in the
Anniversary speeches of the last five years that the Central Committee has
even been mentioned; and Malenkov's greatly reduced use of Stalin's name,
which appears even less frequently than do references to the Party.
