Nixon Defies Protesters as He Presses Vietnam Pullout
President Nixon, in a rare eight week television news conference, vowed the government will not be intimidated by antiwar demonstrators while sticking to a gradual Vietnam withdrawal. He said peaceful protests will be listened to, but lawbreakers will be prosecuted. He weighed a two China policy and hoped to visit mainland China, stressing the need for improved Sino Soviet relations. He also said troops will stay in South Vietnam until prisoners are released or a credible pledge is secured, directing Paris negotiators to prioritize the POW issue.
