The Paris Summit of 1960 failed primarily due to the escalating tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, particularly after the U-2 incident where an American spy plane was shot down over Soviet airspace. This incident led to a breakdown in trust and communication between the two superpowers, with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev walking out of the summit after demanding an apology from President Eisenhower, which was not forthcoming. Additionally, disagreements over disarmament and other key issues further contributed to the failure of the summit to achieve any significant agreements.

The planned summit meeting in Paris between Eisenhower and Khrushchev in 1960 was canceled because of the U-2 incident. A United States U-2 spy plane was shot down over Soviet airspace, which resulted in the capture of the American pilot, Gary Powers. This incident heightened tensions between the two superpowers and led to the cancellation of the summit.

The Paris Peace Summit of 1960 collapsed primarily due to the U-2 incident, in which an American spy plane was shot down over Soviet territory, and its pilot, Francis Gary Powers, was captured. The incident heightened tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, leading to a breakdown in diplomacy. Additionally, the Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's demands for an apology from President Eisenhower and the overall lack of trust between the two superpowers contributed to the summit's failure. As a result, discussions on key issues, including arms control and the status of Berlin, were effectively derailed.
