| Description: | SEATO Warns Reds At the Bangkok, Thailand, meeting of foreign ministers of the south-east Asian treaty organization, with the Laotian crisis at a peak, U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk pointedly reaffirms America's policy of freedom from foreign interference for the nations of the strategic area. Rusk states that the internal problems of SE Asia can be resolved w/out US interference; however, US "will assist any nation struggling for their survival against armed minorities", leaving the language vague enough for US interference to still be possible. "Naked aggression". | |
