Ford warns oil bloc amid inflation and nuclear options
President Ford cautions against OPEC price hikes and signals potential use of tactical nuclear weapons if Korea tensions rise. He warned there is no basis for Laird’s claim that the Soviet Union violated SALT, and urged NATO allies to protect Portuguese rights amid concerns of a Communist government in Portugal. Ford emphasized inflation as a top concern, predicted short-term unemployment, and left open the fate of the 1975 tax cut while contemplating budget impacts and oil strategy.
