Vietnam Thieu Accused of Steering Election Law
Reports from Saigon allege President Nguyen Van Thieu steered the recent presidential election law through the National Assembly to secure re election. The measure requires 40 endorsements from senators and deputies of 100 provincial and city officials, a hurdle critics say could bar rivals like Ky and complicate a fair race. Western diplomats doubt Ky’s chances, while Minh may be kept in reserve to counter an outright Thieu victory. Supporters argue Thieu controls military and rural votes and maintains security and reform gains that ensure reelection.
