Senate condemns Thieu regime in Sou Thieu ruled by force not popularity
The Senate adopted a Stevenson amendment demanding the United States cease supporting policies in South Vietnam that curb opposition and abridge rights. The measure would compel the President to report actions taken and, if aid continues, use all leverages to oppose Thieu’s regime. It accuses Thieu of censoring news, dissolving hamlet elections, and torturing opponents to sustain a dictatorship. A second amendment, via Hartke, would cut foreign aid to Southeast Asian governments not curbing opium and heroin trafficking.
