Laos 2. South Vietnam Saigon appears calm after the mili- tary takeover. General Khanh says he does not at present plan to participate in the projected government, formation of which he expects will take a week. First Deputy Premier Vien will serve as acting premier. Khanh says he is confident the Bud- dhists will desist from political ac- tivity as they promised. The prospects for stabilizing the situation at present seem to depend very largely on two things: how Khanh goes about reorganizing the government; and whether he lives up to his commitment to form a national assembly by the end of March. 50X1 50X1 bUX1 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003400320001-4 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003400320001-4 jxi 3.

Arnulfo probably calculates that he must make his bid before the proposed negotiations with the US on the Canal problem begin to show positive benefits for Panama. 50X1 50X1 50X1 No official Egyptian comment on 50X1 yesterday's House action has been noted. Press treatment thus far has been re- strained. Gromyko's suggestion last week for a federal solution to the Cyprus prob- lem has caused a major stir. Turkey prefers such a solution. Both Athens and Nicosia are disturbed,and shifts in their foreign policies are likely.
