§ The Prime MinisterI had a useful talk with President Thieu on 10th April. Our talks covered a number of current international issues and the situation in South-East Asia in particular.
§ Miss HallNow that we have had sounds from those who attacked the Americans for so long but who are so very quiet about what the North Vietnamese are getting up to in Laos, South Vietnam and Cambodia, I hope my right hon. Friend told President Thieu that the British Government had not forgotten those people there who want freedom and do not want to come under the heel and the boot of the North Vietnamese.
§ The Prime MinisterI emphasised to President Thieu that we hoped that the agreement which had been signed not only by North Vietnam and South Vietnam but by the other great Powers would be carried out explicitly in every way.
