Saigon proposes 10 point plan for Viet political settlement
Saigon submits a 10 point plan at Chateau de la Celle St Cloud near Paris calling for internationally supervised general elections within four months. It requires withdrawal of all North Vietnamese troops and demobilization of an equal number of South Vietnamese forces before elections. The plan abandons the previous demand to keep the existing South Vietnamese constitution. A preliminary accord could be signed by April 27 with elections set for August 26.
