21 November 1964
DAILY BRIEF
*Communist China - USSR: Peiping's harsh edi-
torial, implicitly claiming credit for causing Khru-
shchev's downfall by its consistent opposition to his
policies, is a warning to his successors that there
can be no improvement in the Sino-Soviet relationship
without significant concessions by the Soviet Union.
Red Flag has set forth a series of demands, char-
acterizing them as Khrushchevian "mistakes," which
leaves the USSR little room for maneuver. The edi-
torial stops short of condemning the present leaders,
however, despite the fact that they have already re-
affirmed many of Khrushchev's policies as their own.
This relative restraint appears to be connected
with the problem of the preparatory meeting which
Khrushchev had called for December 15. When in
Moscow last week, Chou En-tai undoubtedly tried to
get the Soviet leaders to postpone, if not abandon,
this conference. It is possible that he was met with
equivocation, with no firm decision made one way or
the other.
In their editorial, the Chinese lay the blame wholly
on Khrushchev for ordering an "illegal" conference,
and imply that the present leaders can gracefully post-
pone a meeting by also blaming it on Khrushchev.
They make it clear, however, that such a Soviet con-
cession would be, in their view, only a first step, and
that Chinese intransigence will continue until there
has been a complete change in Soviet policy.

The USSR is continuing to evade establishing a
firm date for a preparatory conference leading to an
eventual world Communist meeting. Soviet Ambas-
sador Mikhailov told. the US ambassador in Djakarta
on 20 November that the CPSU "had definitely decided
to proceed with a meeting of world Communist parties,"
but he did not define what sort of meeting this was to
nor did, he mention a date for such a meeting.
*Because of the shortage of time for preparation
of this item, the analytic interpretation presented
here has been produced by the Central Intelligence
Agency without the participation of the Bureau of In-
telligence and Research, Department of State.

Canada-UN: Ccanada tentatively has decided to
favor seating Communist China in the United Nations;,]
,The Canadians assert that such a move is now
necessary if the West is to escape being "overwhelmed"
by an unfavorable vote. They are, in fact, drafting a
resolution which would "open up" a seat for Peiping,
but at the same time protect Taiwan's future position
in the UN. Ottawa intends, however, to press this
resolution only if it seems assured of commanding
"respectable" supporj
[On Monday, the Canadians began consultations
with the Belgians and Italians on the Chinese repre-
sentation issue. Whether or not Ottawa's ideas are
adopted, any concerted initiative by the three prob-
ably would be well received. by a number of countries
in Europe and elsewhere.]

Communist China - French Africa: More former
French territories in west and central Africa appear
to be moving toward. diplomatic recognition of Peiping.
A spokesman for Chad's President Tombalbaye
told, the US ambassador in Fort Lamy this week that
it is "possible" Chad will recognize Communist China.
The spokesman made it clear that his government,
which in common with other French protege states is
subject to increasing radical internal pressures, is
anxious to keep in step with its sister countries, es-
pecially those which are close neighbors.
According to the French ambassador to Chad,
Tombalbaye intends early next month to discuss the
China question with the presidents of the Central Afri-
can Republic (CAR), which established relations with
Peiping and broke with Taipei this fall, and of Came-
roon, which is evidently contemplating a similar move.
CAR President Dacko, however, has told the US am-
bassador in Bangui that both Chad. and Cameroon have
already decided to recognize Peiping, although prob-
ably not until sometime next year.
On 18 November, the foreign minister of Mauri-
tania, which last week established relations with North
Korea, made statements to the US ambassador which
appeared to be preparing the ground for possible early
recognition of Peiping.

Cambodia: Sihanouk is starting another campaign
for international guarantees of Cambodia's borders.
In a session with his advisers on 18 November,
Sihanouk said that a delegation headed by Foreign Min-
ister Sambath would, go to Peiping and Hanoi, while
another Cambodian team is being prepared for nego-
tiations in New Delhi with US representatives.
Sihanouk indicated that he intends to focus the
New Delhi talks on South Vietnam's incursions into
Cambodia, for which the Cambodians hold. the US
jointly responsible. He said that these talks had a
"one percent" chance for success.
Sihanouk was not optimistic about the prospects
for the mission to Peiping and Hanoi, either. The
object of this mission is to get North Vietnam and the
National Liberation Front to "recognize" Cambodia's
borders. He characterized. the Vietnamese Commu-
nists as "depraved" for not being more forthright on
the border issue when he was in Peiping in October.

P1' Sudan: Communist and non-Communist elements
appear deadlocked over the composition of the new su-
preme executive council which was announced last week. The non-Communists insist on a five-man body,
made up of representatives of the traditional political
parties. The Communists are calling for either a com-
mission of three "independents," or continuation of the
present cabinet, in which they have taken a major role,
as the top executive. \\\

Panama: Communists are once again exploiting
the Canal issue.
The Communists, for example, are behind the
current student demonstrations demanding that the
government assume a stiffer posture on the Canal
question. The Communists are also reported to be
working with the large opposition Panamenista Party
and probably hope to spur its leader, Arnulfo Arias,
into more active efforts against the administration.
Another development is the reactivation of the
Communist-front Committee for the Defense of Na-
tional Sovereignty, which was very active in maintain-
ing anti-US sentiment after the riots in January 1964.

visits London in early December. Britain's compro-
mise offer, which went a considerable way toward
meeting India's requirements, apparently was rejected
by the Indians, who insisted stiffly that newer class
destroyers be included. Continuation of the impasse
would ultimately lead New Delhi to turn to Moscow for
naval aid. 7
