Vietnam peace talks face major procedural obstacles
North Vietnam said expansion of Viet Nam War negotiations is blocked by major procedural issues. A Hanoi spokesman noted only minor points were agreed on such as how to seat negotiators and whether talks would be two or four sided. U.S. negotiators studied Hanoi’s latest proposals after Cy rus Vance's secret meetings with Col. Ha Van Lau. The North Vietnamese insisted the talks be four sided with full VOIC Viet Cong parity, while Washington and Saigon want a two sided format with Viet Cong included in the Hanoi delegation. Diplomats expect talks to begin next week at the Majestic Hotel in Paris, with South Vietnam’s Nguyen Van Thieu setting opening day.
