No POW Releases Today as Hanoi Hints at Possible 140 More
AP reports a North Vietnamese spokesman said no American prisoners would be released on Tuesday. U.S. officials, however, held a distinct possibility of about 140 POWs being handed over, with Hanoi expected to issue a formal list soon. The cease fire and troop withdrawals frame the dispute as Hanoi cites civilian missing persons and Vietnam’s 100 000 families.
