Lon Nol Agrees To Truce Move In Cambodia
President Lon Nol bows to U S pressure and agrees to broaden his government by including opposition figures to start cease-fire talks with the Khmer Rouge. He says a new prime minister will head a cabinet with an 11 member adviser council including Republicans and Democrats. The plan follows a visit by Gen. Haig to assess the threat and aims to bring Sirik Matak and Sihanouk supporters to negotiations, though observers doubt the Khmer Rouge will negotiate while Lon Nol and Lon Non retain control. The cabinet reorganization is pending after Premier Hang Thun Hak submitted his resignation.
