Thieu appeals to VC to reconsider Paris peace plan
In Saigon President Thieu urged Viet Cong leaders to rethink his electoral settlement proposal at the Paris talks after a negative response. He said the plan offers goodwill and urged negotiating in good faith while noting no final stance on consequences of rejection. The NLF and North Vietnam dismissed the proposal as a trick and called for a coalition government. The Catholic Greater Solidarity Force condemned it as unconstitutional citing a constitutional ban on communism, while the Progressive Movement urged a government of reconciliation.
