Eisenhower Links Syrian Crisis to Soviet Aims
President Eisenhower said the ultimate aim of the pro Communist effort in Syria is Soviet control. He cautioned the United States does not know how far the process has progressed and warned the action could trigger his Middle East policy but not justify immediate intervention. He blamed Moscow for the pattern of aid then influence and control. He noted doubts about full recall but supported a civil rights compromise plan and criticized the Democratic-led Congress’ record. He said a third term ban wasn’t decisive and he does not regret running again.
