Lt Gen Nguyen Khanh, head of the armed forces, reportedly outlined the plan before a 20 officer military council, signaling Khanh as the strongest figure in the country for the moment. He declared in a radio address that foreign powers cannot dictate policies to his forces and suggested Vietnam could proceed without American aid if needed.
