No amount of foreign aid can
carry Diem’s regime to victory,
Chuong said. Still, he added, aid
to Viet Nam ^cannot be abruptly
stopped without losing it to the
Communists.
“TTiis dilemma seems insolu-
ble,” he continued, “because al-
most all of file material forces
in Viet Nam are in the hands of
dictators who are determined to
use the population of Saigon, in-
cluding the Americans there—and
even the freedom of Viet Nam—to
blackmail the United States into
continuing its aid to a regime
which has irreparably lost the
support of the people and can no
longer lead them to victory.”
.Chuong added, “tiie presentdi-
lemma can be i solved by a coali-
tion ot able men of good will, who
would firmly stand for national
union and reconciliation, justice
for ad and more efficiency in gov-
ernment,.
“Suqb able men of good will are
numerous, but have so far been
either silenced and reduced to im-
potence in Viet Nam, or oppressed
into exile.”
