SUBJECT
- Political Action Program in Laos
For 11 years CIA-supported irregular forces have been fighting in Laos. Now the scene is shifting to a peace-time situation, demobilized troops will be looking for jobs and leaders must compete in elections. The non-communist leaders with whom we have worked need financial assistance to strengthen and expand their political base.
CIA proposes to spend [dollar amount not declassified] this fiscal year helping selected political leaders. As direct political action, [dollar amount not declassified] would be used to support political activities designed to promote a unified, non-communist slate with popular support in the next national election. Socio-economic programs would use [dollar amount not declassified] in developing cooperatives, aid to veterans, and educational efforts to create economic viability as a base for political leadership and strength. In addition to its intrinsic worth, the program will provide opportunities for the U.S. to influence Laotian political leaders covertly. Funds are available in the Agency budget.
State, Defense, JCS and CIA 40 Committee principals concur in this proposal. Under Secretary of State Porter’s approval is based upon the provision that the socio-economic program include measures to discourage opium growth or traffic.
Recommendation
That you approve the CIA proposal for a covert political action program in Laos at [dollar amount not declassified] for Fiscal Year 1974.

CHỦ ĐỀ
Chương trình Hành động Chính trị tại Lào
Trong 11 năm, các lực lượng không chính quy được CIA hỗ trợ đã chiến đấu tại Lào. Giờ đây, bối cảnh đang chuyển sang thời bình, quân đội giải ngũ sẽ tìm kiếm việc làm và các nhà lãnh đạo phải cạnh tranh trong các cuộc bầu cử. Các nhà lãnh đạo phi cộng sản mà chúng tôi đã hợp tác cần hỗ trợ tài chính để củng cố và mở rộng cơ sở chính trị của họ.
CIA đề nghị chi [số tiền chưa được giải mật] trong năm tài chính này để hỗ trợ các nhà lãnh đạo chính trị được lựa chọn. Là một hành động chính trị trực tiếp, [số tiền chưa được giải mật] sẽ được sử dụng để hỗ trợ các hoạt động chính trị được thiết kế nhằm thúc đẩy một chính quyền thống nhất, phi cộng sản với sự ủng hộ của người dân trong cuộc bầu cử quốc gia tiếp theo. Các chương trình kinh tế xã hội sẽ sử dụng [số tiền chưa được giải mật] để phát triển các hợp tác xã, hỗ trợ cựu chiến binh và các nỗ lực giáo dục nhằm tạo ra khả năng kinh tế bền vững làm nền tảng cho sự lãnh đạo và sức mạnh chính trị. Bên cạnh giá trị nội tại của chương trình, chương trình sẽ tạo cơ hội cho Hoa Kỳ tác động bí mật đến các nhà lãnh đạo chính trị Lào. Ngân sách có sẵn trong ngân sách của Cơ quan.
Các nguyên thủ của Ủy ban Ngoại giao, Quốc phòng, Bộ Tham mưu Liên quân và CIA 40 đều thỏa thuận với đề nghị này. Việc Ngoại trưởng Porter phê duyệt dựa trên điều khoản rằng chương trình kinh tế xã hội phải bao gồm các biện pháp ngăn chặn sự phát triển hoặc buôn bán thuốc phiện.
Khuyến nghị
Quý vị chấp thuận đề nghị của CIA về một chương trình hành động chính trị bí mật tại Lào với kinh phí [chưa được giải mật] cho năm tài chính 1974.

Lesson in Vietnam from Kissinger to Nixon: “when we made it “our war” we would not let the South Vietnamese fight it; when it again became “their war”, we would not help them fight it.”
(We also had trouble with excesses here: when we made it “our war” we would not let the South Vietnamese fight it; when it again became “their war,” we would not help them fight it. Ironically, we prepared the South Vietnamese for main force warfare after 1954 (anticipating another Korean-type attack), and they faced a political war; they had prepared themselves for political warfare after 1973 only to be faced with a main force invasion 20 years after it had been expected.)
