The Struggle Continues
Although the C.O.V. recognised that the Ceasefire and Peace Agreement was a victory for the international anti-war movement, as well as the Vietnamese people, the feeling at the A.G.M. was that the Committee's work was far from ended. In Cambodia the U.S. Airforce continues to bomb the countryside and the people in a desperate effort to save the Lon Nol regime in Phnom Penh. In Vietnam Thieu continues to violate the ceasefire by attacking P.R.G. positions and more recently invading Cambodia. In New Zealand the Labour Government has shown that it supports the Thieu and Lon Nol regimes just as much as its Tory predecessor.
