Lacy-Zarubin Agreement (1957-1958)

The Lacy-Zarubin Agreement, also known as the Agreement Between the United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics on Exchanges in Cultural, Technical, and Educational Fields[1], was a bilateral agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union on various fields including film, dance, music, tourism, technology, science, medicine, and scholarly research exchange. The agreement was signed on 27 January 1958 in Washington, DC. (source?)

The Agreement on Exchanges in Cultural, Technical, and Educational Fields

The Lacy-Zarubin Agreement was renegotiated every two years, and during the détente, the duration was extended to three years.[2] The final agreement was signed by Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev, at the Geneva Summit, and the agreement was in effect until the Soviet collapse.[2]
