Nixon Says Peace In Vietnam Possible Amid Middle East Hope
The Hague AP three buses of Amboinese exiles seized the Indonesian ambassador’s residence in The Hague and held the ambassador’s family and a police guard hostage to embarrass Suharto. In California Nixon said peace in Vietnam is certain with U.S. troops withdrawn and South Vietnamese taking over, and that there is some hope for the Middle East cease fire. He cautioned against over optimism, noted no new U.S. initiatives, and said the cease fire improves prospects though long-standing tensions remain. Nixon declined to support a U.S. Soviet force under UN auspices and will review the Middle East with top officials at the Western White House Tuesday.

Doves tout strategic dividends and a moral victory while hawks warn it would undercut Nixon's Vietnamization and prolong the conflict. McGovern argues it would restore constitutional balance, Griffin counters it signals unwillingness to meet responsibilities.
