Third. agreement in principle to eventual complete American withdrawal of troops. and withdrawal in fact based on completion of arrangements leading to election. to replacement by Asian troops. and to the withdrawal of North Vietnamese forces. and Fourth. immediate release of all political prisoners. amnesty for any political actions in the past. and right of asylum outside of South Vietnam for any South Vietnamese wishing it. If the safeguards of amnesty and. where necessary. asylum are guaranteed. I believe our humanitarian commitments will be fulfilled. Such an outcome. I believe. would be preferable to the majority of the unfortunate South Vietnamese. so many of whom today are either refugees or casualties of waror dead. Moreover. it is worth noting that a coalition government might well hold its own. Actually. since World War II. of the 33 countries which have had coalition governments in which Communists participated. 22 have remained nonCommunist.
