NOTE FOR: D/DCI/NI
SUBJECT :- Proposed Change to NIE-11-4
2. Would you please circulate this proposal to NFIB Principals.
1. I would like to propose a change to one sentence of
NIE 11-4,-which I find possibly misleading:
Substitute for the sentence on page 34 "Yhe USSR is
not currently tuilding the combination of forces that--
could intervene successfully against determined. opposi-
tion by the sizable armed forces of such a Third World
power as Algeria or South Africa..." the following:
"At this time,,, the USSR is not making a_substantial
effort to enhance the-limited capability of its conventional
forces to intervene in third world confrontations."
