Nixon shocked by U.N. animosity after China vote
White House said U.S. support for the United Nations and foreign aid could be affected by what it called a shocking spectacle at the U.N. General Assembly. Press Secretary Ziegler cited personal animosity toward U.S. policy after Monday’s votes admitting Communist China and expelling Taiwan. He warned the incident could imperil congressional and public backing for the U.N. and foreign aid, noting reactions included cheering and undignified actions by some delegates. He emphasized the U.S. aims to avoid retaliation.
