Combat Not Diplomacy Is Vital in Viet Nam War
U S policy makers see the outcome of the Vietnam war as driven by ground combat over the coming months rather than diplomacy. Officials note Johnson will press a peace offensive while expanding military actions and consider a possible London Commonwealth conference and other peace options. The administration believes North Vietnam and its allies seek victory on the ground and is preparing to add 16 000 to 21 000 troops, raising total U S forces to about 75 000. The State Department outlines 13 peace approaches but does not specify negotiating partners, though talks would likely involve North Vietnam and Red China with possible inclusion of National Liberation Front leaders.
