SYND 17-5-69 MADAME BINH STOCKHOLM VISIT

The transcript discusses the Paris conference where the Nixon administration aimed to gain a strategic advantage both on the battlefield and in negotiations. Over four months and 16 sessions, the US delegate persistently avoided addressing core issues to end American aggression in South Vietnam. The so-called concrete proposals from the US, such as re-establishing the demilitarized zone and mutual troop withdrawal, equated American aggressors with the South Vietnamese population fighting against aggression. This allowed Americans freedom to commit acts of aggression while denying South Vietnamese the right to respond. Nixon's honeymoon period with the American public ended with increasing GI casualties and a stalled conference due to the US government's obstinate stance.
