Nixon rejects pressure on Viet vote and Thieu re election
President Nixon said the United States should not pressure South Vietnam or cut aid over Nguyen Van Thieu's planned unopposed re election on October 3. He warned coups could follow if Thieu is overthrown and endorsed end goals in Indochina including POW releases and a self defending South Vietnam. He also outlined post freeze economic policy and criticized Muskie's remarks on a black running mate as a libel on Americans.
