MEMORANDUM FOR: Dr. Henry A. Kissinger
Assistant to the President for
National Security Affairs
SUBJECT North Vietnam's Hand in the Cambodian
Struggle
1. Attached for your information is a package of two comple-
mentary memoranda, prepared in response to requests from
Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Stearman. The shorter piece ("Hanoi's Role
in Cambodia") is a summary analysis of what kind of support Hanoi
is providing the Khmer Communists, how Hanoi is providing that
support, why Hanoi is providing it and what would happen to the
Khmer insurgent movement if North Vietnamese support were with-
drawn. The longer piece ("Hanoi's Proxy War in Cambodia") is
a survey of the whole record of Vietnamese Communist involvement
in Cambodian affairs.
2. Five copies of each of these two memoranda are being sent
to you and one copy of each to Ambassador Sullivan. Beyond that, we
will make no additional distribution unless or until you direct other-
wise.
