The book is a detailed polemical work that argues the Soviet Union has been a reliable partner in international treaties, contrary to the prevailing narrative. It tries to systematically challenge accusations of Soviet violations across decades of diplomacy, from the 1917 Great October Revolution to the arms control agreements of the 1970s.
The text examines key historical moments, including the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact portrayed as a necessary defensive move after Western appeasement (more on that in "Who Helped Hitler" by Maisky), Yalta and Potsdam agreements, SALT I and II etc.
The book is ideologically written and biased towards the Soviet Union, it was written at the height of the Cold War. Usually, in English one reads bias in the opposite direction.
