Peace talks boycott
(N.Z.P A.-Reut er—Copyright) PARIS, December 28. The ' United States and South Vietnamese delegations to the Vietnam peace talks will not attend the next planned session, due on December 30. A joint communique issued by the two delegations says their decision was taken because of: The very heavy North Vietnamese attacks against unarmed United States reconnaissance planes. The use made of North Vietnam as a sanctuary from which to attack United States aircraft operating against infiltration routes in Laos and in support of Laotian Government forces. The recent indiscriminate rocket attacks on Saigon. The construction by the North Vietnamese of an infiltration road through the Demilitarised Zone for the purposes of continued aggression. The failure of the other side to negotiate seriously in Paris.
