Some of the shipping companies evidently feel that unless government action is taken they would be liable for heavy damages if they breach existing contracs. (,,,Nevertheless, the US Embassy in London has recently noted an increasing reluctance among ship- owners to make new commitments regarding ship- ping to Cuba, and some cargoes for or from Cuba have actually been refused.) eight NATO countries have responded in a gen- erally favorable way to US requests that overflight and landing rights for bloc aircraft bound for Cuba be denie that facilities would be denied to bloc countries not a NATO meeting on 6 November took the position Typical of this response, the UK delegation at j Approved For Releas - 06'My UU1-8 ( Approved For Rise 2003/04/17 :CIA-RDP79T00975A 04M 1-8 signatories to relevant multilateral treaties regarding it aviation.

CIA-RDP79T00975 700090001-8 USSR: Moscow has made a new p oposal for controls ov r underground nuclear tests. While this proposal may have been in prepara- 25X1 tion prior to the Cuban crisis, it is timed to convey the impression that the USSR wishes to prevent any further aggravation of tensions and to begin repair- ing US-Soviet relations he "compromise" proposal was presented by First Deputy Foreign Minister Kuznetsov to Ambas- sador Dean on 7 November. It is based on a sug- gestion advanced at the recent Pugwash Conference that automatic, unmanned seismic stations be used to police a ban on underground tests. Kuznetsov said the USSR would agree to installation of automatic seismic stations along Soviet borders on the terri- tory of states adjoining the USSR, if these countries consent. The Soviet Government would also allow two or three such stations on itc,territory if the other nuclear powers would do likewise iiii1e he asserted that the sealed instruments installed on Soviet territory should be transported from and to the "international center" by Soviet per- sonnel and planes, Kuznetsov indicated that if the US should insist on participation of foreign personnel, the USSR might accept such an arrangemen) Ge reaffirmed his government's unwillingness to accept on-site inspections on Soviet territory.\ (oviet leaders probably hope that when the new proposal is made public--presumably later this month when the Geneva disarmament talks resume and the 9 Nov 62 Approved For Release DAILY BRIEF d.

Heavy fighting occurred in both areas during the early days of the Chinese push, and could be renewed at any time. Indian authorities continue to be concerned about the Sikkim area where Indian forces have been heavily reinforced and may already have received Western- supplied weapons. The Indian Communist Party's split continues, with leaders of the nationalistic right wing pledging renewed support for the Indian war effort. The Nehru government is beginning to round up left-wing dissent- ers from the party line. Nehru's review of the situation at the opening of Parliament on 8 November consisted largely of a re- hash of his earlier statements and pledges to drive the Chinese out of Indian territory. Negotiations on Peiping's terms were again ruled out. The govern- ment's two resolutions designed to promote domestic political unity and to rally public support for the de- fense effort will receive overwhelming approval when debate concludes this 25X1 25X1 J NOV bZ DAILY BRIEF iv Approved For Releas 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975 0 0001-8 ~~~ rm. 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06700090001-8 Approved For Release 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06700090001-8 /O/////~ Approved For Rse 2003/04/17: CIA-RDP79T00975A 90001-8 25X1 I negotiate additional economic accords. 25X1 9 Nov 62 DAILY BRIEF vi Approved For Releas - 1~X'I90001-8 Laos: Souvanna Phouma is again threatening to resign unles fie gets support from all factions in the coalition government. CAlt a recent diplomatic gathering, he told several envoys, including the new Soviet ambassador, that he was "up against a wall" in his efforts to achieve na- tional reconciliation. When Pathet Lao leader Souphannouvong returns to Vientiane, Souvanna intends to call a meeting of Lao leaders and make it clear that he will quit unless both left and right make concessions. Souphannouvong re- turned to Xieng Khouang on 7 November via Hanoi after spending ove a month in Moscow and Peiping for med- ical treatment. 9neral Phoumi, meanwhile, confirms that he is going to Moscow about 20 November in his capacity as finance minister to conclude a trade a reement and 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06700090001-8 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06700090001-8 /O///////O//////O/////// EM Approved For Fas 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975A 7001001-8 j 0 Algeria-Angola: l~lgeria is stepping up aid to Angolan rebel group an office is to be set up in Algiers to recruit volunteers to "help the liberation of Angola:' Ben Bella, who has a surplus of both soldiers and arms, has repeatedly said that Algerian troops could be made available to aid the Angolan rebels. j 25X1 25X1 (_ North Africa has been the main source of aid for the ngolans.
