United Nations Urged To Seek Vietnam Peace
United States Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg urged North Vietnam at the U.N. General Assembly to provide a definite statement on whether halting bombing would lead to meaningful negotiations. He stressed the U.S. preference for peace talks and noted U.N. responsibilities in the Vietnam issue while warning Hanoi has not committed to negotiations. He called for flexible Middle East diplomacy and highlighted hopes for a Geneva treaty on nuclear nonproliferation as part of broader arms control efforts.
