Kosygin presses Hanoi to halt troops in Vietnam talks
Soviet Premier Kosygin urged North Vietnam to stop troop and arms shipments to South Vietnam to boost peace talks. Informants say Hanoi rejected the move, prompting renewed US air raids and stalling Soviet British peacemaking efforts during Kosygin's Britain visit. Wilson and Brown remain hopeful a small move could activate a peace machinery. The British believe Hanoi’s resistance is aided by about 1,000 Chinese troops and roughly 1,000 North Vietnamese forces across the frontier.
