Explanation
After the October–November 1962 war, Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev publicly blamed China for the conflict, declaring in a December 1962 speech to the Supreme Soviet that Beijing bore responsibility. This deepened the Sino-Soviet split. Brezhnev, Gorbachev and Yeltsin belong to later eras. Hence Nikita Khrushchev.
