Brezhnev Message to Johnson

Moscow TASS International Service in Russian 0955 GMT 23 November 1963--L

    (Text) I have just learned of the foul murder of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. I am deeply saddened by this news. Soviet people share the grief of the U.S. people in connection with the heavy loss they have suffered--the tragic death of this outstanding statesman at the height of his powers. Accept my most sincere condolences.
