Khanh Renounces Presidency but Remains Key South Vietnam Leader
Maj. Gen. Nguyen Khanh relinquished the title and dictatorial powers amid student and Buddhist pressure, while likely staying as chief of the US backed government. He may seek re election or resume the premiership as the military council is dissolved. The United States said Khanh still holds real power. Rioting Buddhist protests and Catholic village attacks, with casualties, marked the crisis as tens of thousands protested outside Saigon.
