North Vietnam 2. South Vietnam 50X1 Accumulating information suggests that Hanoi is bringing North Vietnam to a state of semi-mobilization.: This still falls far short of classic military mobilization for offensive opera- tions; we consider it defensive in nature and are therefore inclined to discount the view that it points to an early attempt to cross the 17th parallel in force in an overt, large-scale invasion. , Hanoi itself in its propaganda output has described this as "full mobilization" south of the 20th parallel--the area of the air strikes--and "partial mobilization" far- ther north. 50X1 50X1 The generals are still deciding how they will run the government and Premier Quat's "caretaker" role will probably con- tinue for a few days. At the moment, there are signs that a supreme military council, possibly headed by present Defense Minister General Thieu, may emerge to set policy. A mixed military- 50X1 civilian executive council, possibly headed by Air Force Commander Ky, would carry it out. 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700330001-0 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700330001-0 3. Dominican Republic 4. Argentina 5. Venezuela The country is calm but full of re- ports about trouble to come, either tomor- row,, when both sides plan large demonstra- tions, or during the week. The Imbert forces continue to chafe under restrictions on military action to wipe out the rebel enclave in Santo Domingo. There are rumors that they may be planning some' sortof a foray anyway. Federal and local police still have made no headway in their search for the perpetrators of the attack on US Consul Wanamaker in Cordoba on 7 June./ Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700330001-0 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 5 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A0037003300010 xi 6. Cuba 7. India According to the press, Che Guevara has been replaced as Castro's minister of industries. This news comes on the heels of much speculation about his three-month absence from public view. Castro, in several recent speeches, has praised Guevara's contribution to the fight against Batista, and it seems likely that Guevara will continue to play an important role.
