Bunker sees progress in Vietnam but cautions on negotiations
U S Ambassador Ellsworth Bunker says eight months of progress in Vietnam raise the possibility of accelerating gains though no sign of a shift in Communist negotiation posture. He notes Thieu’s government has a solid program but concrete actions depend on organization and momentum, and cautions against expanding the war into Cambodia or Laos. He says North Vietnam may seek a settlement if it can’t win, but predicts little change before U S presidential elections.
