Cambodian Premier Sihanouk's son, who was s u ying at Peking University until mid-June, is quoted as saying that the announcement last month of plans for a "thorough reform" was followed by violent riots and mass ar- rests of students at universities in the capital. The Cambodian said that life at the university had become so unbearable that he would never return. He thought that a similar situation prevailed at universities in other cities. This version of student reaction has not been con- firme , but there have been other indications of dis- orders at schools in the past weeks in the wake of the regime's cultural purification drive. tudent demonstrations were a daily occurrence, an at armed soldiers were patrolling the streets of the capital. although student demonstrations had stopped, anti-Mao shouts were still being heard at night coming from the campus at Peking University. It is not yet clear how far or how fast the regime will actually push the radical changes in entrance re- quirements, curricula, and operating methods that have been discussed in the Chinese press. The only concrete steps in this direction thus far have been a six-month postponement of the enrollment of the 1966 freshman class at the universities and the retention of students at the schools for indoctrination this summer instead of giving them the usual working vacation. 25X 25X1 r 25X1 23 Jul 66 3 0 Approved For Release 2003/04/22 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO09100 40001-5 25X Approved For elease 2003/04/22 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO091001 0001-5 25X1, Belgium-Congo: [Brussels is seeking clarifica- tion of Mobutu's intentions Brussels sent a stiff diplomatic note to Kinshasa, on 21 July stating that "conversations at the highest level" not later than September seem "indispensable" if the Congo wants Belgium's "cooperation. "" At stake is the Belgian military and technical aid which most observers believe essential to prevent anarchy in much of the Congo j Brussels is seeking to eliminate harassment of a variety of Belgian business establishments in the Congo. Mobutu apparently made concessions to Belgian and foreign oil companies on 21 July but only under threat of a cutoff of oil supplies.] 25X1 23 Jul 66 I 2 5 X ------------- - 25X1% A roved F r Release 2003/04/22 CIA-RDP79T00975A00910 140001-5 NATO: (LDifferences relating to nuclear-defense sharing and planning matters have emerged in recent discussions among NATO members. At the North Atlantic Council's discussion this week of a British report on the Eighteen Nation Dis- armament Committee in Geneva, the Dutch and Bel- gians lined up with the British in urging that the so- called European option clause in the Western draft nonproliferation treaty be reconsidered. The Dutch and Belgians supported the British contention that it is essential for the Western Allies "to move" if any- thing is to be accomplished at Geneva and that at present the European option clause, which leaves the door open for some kind of European nuclear force, is the focal point of disagreement with the Soviets.m !CA leading German CDU politician, however, has expressed his opinion to US officials in Bonn that any proposed nonproliferation treaty which`is more re- strictive than the present draft and would totally elim- inate the European option would be rejected by a large majority of the Bundestag. Differences of view have also developed over US plans'-to press for a firm agreement on a permanent nuclear-defense affairs committee with a subordinate nuclear planning group. Although the Germans favor eventual creation of a permanent committee, they do not want to risk antagonizing the French at this time. The Germans probably also want to put off institution- alizing any arrangement which might diminish their clear sharing problem chances of obtaining a "hardware solution" to the nu- 23 Jul 66 25X ME Pd i Approved For (ease 2003/04/22 CIA-RDP79T00975A009100 40001-5 25X j j pp Approved For Rese 2003/04/22: CIA-RDP79T00975A100140001-5 MALAGASY REPUBLIC * Al ES SALAAM 25X1 3 Jul 66 CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE BULLETIN Map Approved For R (ease 2003/04/22 : CIA-RDP79T00975A009100 40001-5 25X1/ *Congo (Brazzaville): President Massamba-Debat is apparently taking another step to curb his army, which mutinied late last month. the small contingent of French military advisers has been asked to leave Brazzaville within a few days.

He is said to have suffered a stroke which may incapacitate him for as long as six months. His constitutional successor, Vice President Tsiebo, is a political nonentity, and Interior Minister Andre Resampa is expected to as- sume interim power.
