Vietnamese Front outlines provisional coalition government
The NLF proposes a provisional coalition government to implement withdrawal of U S and allied troops and to hold general elections across South Vietnam. It calls for freedom of speech and religion and nonretaliation toward former opponents, with reunification plans and postwar stability terms. The plan was unveiled by Tran Buu Kiem in Hanoi during peace talks with North Vietnam’s Le Duc Tho and Xuan Thuy backing it, while U S Ambassador Lodge offered cautious remarks and Saigon officials said they are studying the proposal.
