Ambassador Tuthill in Brussels reports that most of his European contacts feel that De Gaulle's drive for a French national nuclear force symbol- izes the general's desire for a Europe organized along nationalist lines which would gradually aban- don its dependence upon the US for security. A clear majority of these contacts oppose this concept and see many dangers in French acquisition of an independent nuclear force. . 6uthill has noted widespread skepticism re- garding a NATO multinational nuclear force which is regarded largely as a rearrangement of what already exists. While the idea of a purely Euro- pean nuclear force closely linked with the US has a number of adherents, there is a growing aware- ness that implementation of such a concept requires a greater a now exists.. gree of European political unity than V 18 Apr 63 DAILY BRIEF 25X1 8 Approved For Release 2 03/04/11 : CIA-RDP79T00975A006 00420001-9 25X1 rmmmmmmmul Approved For Release 2 03/04/11 :CIA-RDP79T00975A006 00420001-9 25X1 25X1 Angola: Angolan nationalist leader Holden Roberto faces increasing disaffection within his mil- itary organization Roberto's Western-oriented Union of Angolan Peop es .

The Chinese Communists will send a politburo- -level delegation to Moscow, according to a Commu+- nist editor in Hong Kong who has, just returned from the mainland. Peiping has publicly reiterated its positions in the Sino-Soviet dispute on several occa- sions since the Soviet proposal was made and is likely to hold inflexibly to its fundamental views in the forthcomin a USSR: The Penkovsky treason trial will appar- ently begin in Moscow in the near future. TASS announced on 17 April that the case of Penkovsky and the British subject Greville Wynne, his alleged accomplice in spying for the West, has been turned over to the military collegium of the USSR Supreme Court--the court of first instance in treason and espionage cases.
