China Poised for Moderation in 1968 Amid Turmoil
UPI reports that China faces a turbulent year with Mao's power struggle intensifying yet signs of moderation emerging. Economic disruption, looming food shortages, and continued emphasis on nuclear and missile programs shape a cautious trajectory. The Red Guards are under control as education policy shifts, while relations with the Soviet Union may soften or deteriorate depending on a summit. China remains opposed to Vietnam peace talks and vows to back North Vietnam if needed.
