No signs of tighter China Russian links
Washington officials said there is no evidence Moscow and Peking have tightened ties over the North Vietnam blockade. They stressed genuine, serious ideological differences and noted no impact on US-China or US-Soviet relations. A White House aide cited a rift among Hanoi leaders over invasion plans and described social strains in North Vietnam. The Pentagon reported North Vietnam moved troops south via the DMZ to reinforce four divisions, with Laos-based troops reassigned. Senator Strom Thurmond opposed amnesty for military deserters and draft resisters, urging prosecution.
