Kissinger warns Soviets in Angola Inevitable test of West resolve
Kissinger told NATO ministers in Brussels and reporters in London that Moscow will test the West in new arenas including Angola where the Soviet backed MPLA is pushing for control. He urged a moderate policy toward Soviet power while maintaining a strong defense and warned against a war by proxy in Africa. He declined to confirm U.S. funding specifics but noted possible aid channels to FNLA and UNITA via Zaire. Gulf Oil was cited by a columnist as paying MPLA royalties, a claim Gulf denied as possibly the total oil concession taxes.
