Critics Unmoved by Carter Speech on Cuba and SALT II
Critics say Carter failed to resolve SALT II links with Soviet troops in Cuba. He announced stepped up U S surveillance and naval presence, plus aid to Latin nations fearing the Soviet Cuban alliance. Senate voices split on linking Cuba to SALT II while Brezhnev assurances are viewed as insufficient.

Officials cite no intent to expand US strength but to deter regional threats amid Nicaragua and El Salvador unrest. Gold prices surged to record highs in London and Zurich as markets reacted to global tensions.
