GENERAL INTRODUCTION THE LYNDON B. JOHNSON NATIONAL SECURITY FILES:

"COUNTRY FILES," 1963-1969

The presidency of Lyndon B. Johnson represents a significant period in the history of U.S. foreign policy. The Vietnam War was the dominant event of this period, to be sure, but it is highly misleading to think of the Johnson years in terms of Vietnam alone. The 1960s marked the height of post-World War II U.S. globalism, and Johnson inherited from his predecessors worldwide obligations and a host of complex problems. In addition to Vietnam, he faced major crises in Panama, the Dominican Republic, and the Middle East.

Although the cold war shaped U.S. responses to these crises and continued to influence U.S. foreign policy in general, important new developments in foreign policy occurred under Johnson. Responding to changes in the international system, the administration began to devise new approaches toward the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China, the major adversaries of the United States. As tensions with these adversaries eased, ties within the Western alliance system loosened, causing strains between the United States and its major European allies. The economic burdens imposed by the Vietnam War and by two decades of cold war policies also forced the administration to depart from conventional approaches to the old issues of foreign aid and economic development in the Third World. The Johnson years thus represented a transition between the global "cold warriorism" of the early Kennedy presidency and the policy of détente and retrenchment initiated by Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger.

The management of these crises and the groping toward new policies can be studied in depth in the "Country Files" section of Johnson's National Security Files. The "Country Files" were maintained in the White House by McGeorge Bundy and Walt Rostow, national security advisers to Johnson. Bundy and Rostow monitored the daily cable traffic through the White House Situation Room and coordinated the flow of intelligence and information to the president, determining what items should be brought to his attention. They served as liaisons with the departments and agencies involved in foreign policy, reviewing recommendations sent to the president by these groups and keeping an eye on their daily operations to ensure that policies were coordinated and decisions implemented.

Bundy and Rostow, however, were more than neutral disseminators of information; they each met daily with the president and often pushed their own recommendations. In 1965, Bundy wentto Vietnam and the Dominican Republic to serve as Johnson's eyes and ears during the crises in those areas. Rostow prepared the agenda for, and informed agencies of the results of Johnson's famous "Tuesday lunches," the administration's primary decision-making vehicle; in addition, he represented the White House in the administration's Senior Interdepartmental Group, a top-level coordinating committee. Both Bundy and Rostow also publicly defended and explained administration policies by holding press conferences and giving "backgrounders" to journalists.

The "Country Files" represent some of the most important foreign policy files maintained in the offices of Bundy and Rostow. As the title suggests, they consist of separate files arranged chronologically, for various individual countries. They contain extensive cable traffic between the departments and agencies in Washington and embassies and missions abroad; memoranda of conversations between U.S. and foreign officials and among top U.S. officials; intelligence reports assessing critical foreign policy issues; internal memoranda, such as those from the national security advisers to the president; and agenda for and records of top-level meetings. The "Country Files" provide a clear sense of the way in which the administration perceived major foreign policy issues and

framed its responses. Their chronological arrangement permits the researcher to follow on a day-to- day basis the administration's handling of crises and to trace the evolution of major policies.

Vietnam was Johnson's major problem•and eventually his undoing. The Vietnam "Country File" richly documents the administration's escalation of the war from a commitment of sixteen thousand advisers in November 1963 to that of nearly two hundred thousand combat troops by the end of 1965. This file, which contains material through August 1965, details such controversial issues as the Gulf of Tonkin incident, the initiation of regular bombing attacks of North Vietnam, and the July 1965 decision to commit large numbers of combat troops to South Vietnam. From the documents in the file, one can clearly sense the growing fears of collapse in South Vietnam, the sometimes acute divisions among Johnson's advisers on how to respond to the crisis, and the president's own caution.

The documents offer an in-depth look at the June-July 1965 deliberations that led to the commitment of combat troops to Vietnam. Included are extensive memoranda from critics of escalation such as Undersecretary of State George W. Ball and advocates such as Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara, plus a number of key reports, among them a lengthy study prepared for the Joint Chiefs of Staff that forecasts the possible military results of escalation. Records of top- level meetings show how the president painstakingly, and with consummate skill, forged the consensus on which escalation was based.

From the outset, the conflict in Vietnam spilled over into neighboring Laos and Cambodia, and the "Country Files" on these nations elucidate the broader, Indochinese dimensions of the war. The Laos file contains material through January 1966. Ostensibly, the United States persisted in trying to uphold the tenuous 1962 Geneva Agreements on Laos. In fact, in response to growing North Vietnamese use of Laos as an infiltration route for men and supplies into South Vietnam, the United States mounted various military and paramilitary actions along and across the Laotian border. In Cambodia, the mercurial Prince Norodom Sihanouk struggled to maintain his nation's tenuous neutrality; to that end he severed relations with the United States in late 1963. The Cambodia file, which contains material through December 1965, documents Sihanouk's desperate maneuvers and the U.S. response to them.

The Vietnam War was also the dominant factor influencing relations between the United States and major Pacific allies, Australia, Thailand, and the Philippines. The material on Australia is restricted mainly to the period before December 1965. Although it deals with a number of issues, including trade and the U.S. balance-of-payments problem, it primarily concerns the Johnson administration's efforts to get Australian troops to fight in Vietnam. The Thailand file, which contains material through December 1965, covers such topics as U.S. assistance to the Thai government in combating an internal insurgency and the establishment of U.S. bases in Thailand from which to stage air strikes in Vietnam and Laos. The Philippines file is more complete, containing material up to late 1968, and also more comprehensive. In addition to offering insights on Vietnam, this file reveals much about the special relationship between the United States and the Philippines and the trade agreements and U.S. base rights that were an integral part of it. This file also provides information on the emergence of Ferdinand Marcos as president of, and ultimately strongman in, the Philippines.

The Indonesia file is one of the largest, most interesting, and most significant files in the "Asia and the Pacific" grouping. Strategically located and rich in natural resources, Indonesia was a major prize in the cold war during the 1950s and 1960s, and its volatile leader, Achmed Sukarno, maintained a delicate neutrality and extorted maximum aid from each superpower. During the same time that the United States was escalating the war in Vietnam, a major crisis developed in Indonesia. Sukarno veered sharply toward the left and admitted Communists to his government while simultaneously threatening the nearby pro-Western government of Malaysia. In a dramatic turnaround, the Indone- sian army in October 1965 narrowly thwarted a Communist coup attempt, expelled the Communists from the government, and overthrew Sukarno. The Indonesia file reveals America's anxiety and its subsequent relief at what Johnson would later call "a major event in the history of modern Asia."

The Johnson administration also faced major crises in Panama in 1964, the Dominican Republic in 1965, and the Middle East in June 1967, when the long-standing tensions between the Arabs and Israelis exploded into the so-called Six-Day War. "Country File" documentation on the above two Latin American crises is quite sparse.2 Because the Israel and United Arab Republic files contain material from before June 1967, they deal only with the origins of the Six-Day War3 There is, however,

important material on the war in the Middle East, General, "Country File," and in the U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe, 1963-1969, file.

The cold war persisted during the Johnson years, but it underwent significant modification. The international political system had changed dramatically from the bipolar structure of the period imme- diately following World War 11 to one with multiple centers of power. The emergence of the Sino-Soviet split provided new opportunities and posed new challenges for U.S. policy. Following precedents set by John F. Kennedy during his last months in office, Johnson deliberately set out to ease tensions with the Soviet Union. He cooled U.S. rhetoric, worked out a U.S.-Soviet consular agreement, and expanded U.S.-Soviet cultural exchanges. He also took the first halting steps toward controlling the nuclear arms race, negotiating a nuclear nonproliferation treaty with the Soviets and initiating strategic-arms-limitation talks. Progress in this latter area was halted by the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, but Johnson could rightly claim credit for easing cold war tensions. Very little material on these important events, however, is included in the U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe, 1963-1969, file.

This is not the case with the other major U.S. adversary, China. The Country File on China is one of the largest of the entire collection, and the range of material included suggests the complexity of the China issue in the 1960s. The United States still recognized Chiang Kai-shek's regime on Taiwan as the government of China, and there is abundant material on the increasingly delicate relationship between the two countries. The file also includes the extensive cable traffic to and from America's "listening post" in the British colony of Hong Kong. Because the United States did not maintain diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China, this file lacks the usual kind of diplomatic documents found in the other "Country Files." It does, however, contain numerous intelligence reports concerning mainland China, many of them assessing China's military capabilities and expansionist inclinations, especially in light of the Cultural Revolution that swept the nation in 1966 and 1967. Internal memoranda in the file also suggest the beginnings of an almost imperceptible shift away from a long-standing and deeply entrenched China policy. The People's Republic was still regarded as the number one enemy of the United States, but some U .S. officials increasingly viewed the isolation and containment of mainland China as outmoded and untenable, and began to advocate edging cautiously away from Chiang and possibly developing contacts with Mao Tse-tung's Communist regime.

Changes in relations with old adversaries were paralleled by growing strains in relations with old allies. As fear of the Soviet Union diminished in the 1960s, the ties that bound the Western alliance loosened. The major European allies opposed U.S. escalation of the war in Vietnam, and the economic strains imposed by the war and a growing balance-of-payments problem caused demands in Congress to remove large numbers of U.S. troops from Europe. Economic crisis in West Germany and the United Kingdom added to the turmoil. The most dramatic sign of trouble in the alliance came in February 1966 when the imperious President Charles de Gaulle withdrew France from military participation in NATO. The various "Country Files" on Western Europe document the tensions in the Western alliance; the files for France and the United Kingdom are especially informative, although the latter contain material only through the middle of 1967.

Conflict between the industrialized nations and the Third World also assumed growing importance in the Johnson years, with U.S. policies toward the Third World showing signs of change. The Kennedy administration had courted the new nations of Asia and Africa with promises of lavish aid. Preoccupied with Vietnam and overextended economically, the Johnson administration increasingly stressed regional solutions to economic problems in the Southern Hemisphere in lieu of unilateral U.S. involvement there, and self-help and private investment in lieu of sizable U.S. foreign aid commitments. These trends are evident in the generally fragmentary "Country Files" on the numerous African nations. They are even more evident in the relatively complete file on India, which is one of the largest of the "Country Files." Johnson continually stressed that India should do more to help solve its own agricultural problems, and he withheld long-term commitments of grain, even in a time of severe food shortages, to secure this end.

The Southern Hemisphere issues that most concerned the United States related to Latin America. Johnson and his advisers appear not to have been obsessed with Cuba, as the Kennedy administration had been, but they were concerned with Fidel Castro's potential for mischief in the hemisphere. The Cuba file contains extensive intelligence reports on internal developments in Cuba and also information about the activities of Cuban exiles in the United States.

Kennedy and his advisers had sought to promote democracy in Latin America as a means of staving off communism. During the Johnson years, the United States became increasingly tolerant of military coups preferring the stability of right-wing governments to the uncertainty and possible danger of democratic ferment. This is quite evident in the case of Brazil, as documented in its large and significant "Country File"; there the United States played an indirect, but a highly significant, ro e in the 1964 overthrow, by a military clique, of the constitutional government headed by President Joâo Goulart The various "Country Files" on Latin American nations also make clear the demise of the Alliance for Progress, the shift toward private capital in economic development, and the steady decline of U S prestige in the hemisphere from the heady days of the early 1960s.

The "Country Files" cover many other important subjects. Concern with South Africa's policy of apartheid is quite evident from material contained in the South Africa file. U.S. policy toward and support of the United Nations, which underwent significant changes during the 1960s, is thoroughly- covered in the United Nations file. This file also contains important material on the Vietnam War and U.S. intervention in the Dominican Republic, and abundant documentation on the delicate issue of Chinese representation in the U.N.

The National Security Files: "Country Files," 1963-1969, thus provide an indispensable documentary record of a critical period in U.S. foreign relations. The world changed dramatically during the 1960s and the Vietnam War, the Sino-Soviet split, and the growth of "polycentnsm brought corresponding, if sometimes belated, changes in U.S. foreign policy. This documentary record is far from complete, and important gaps remain, especially in the last two years of Johnson's presidency. Nevertheless, the enormous volume and diverse nature of the documents contained in these files represent an essential foundation for understanding U.S. foreign policy during this transitional period.

INTRODUCTION

The Lyndon B. Johnson National Security Files: U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe, 1963-1969

Lyndon B. Johnson's years as president marked an important transitional period in the cold war. The shrill rhetoric and intense conflict of the late 1950s and early 1960s had abated. The United States and Soviet Union began the tortuous process of controlling nuclear weaponry, and negotiated agreements on various lesser issues as well. Despite these advances, however, real progress in improving U.S.-Soviet relations remained quite limited. U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War was a major impediment to better relations, and the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia in August 1968 ended arms control negotiations before they began. Thus, between 1964 and 1969, U.S.-Soviet relations were characterized by "small and tentative steps along a darkened pathway leading toward an uncertain goal."1

Each side saw advantages to improving relations. Washington and Moscow had both emerged from the Cuban missile crisis of 1962 convinced that nuclear war must be avoided, and a more stable relationship was an essential precondition to that end. Caught with their missiles down in the Cuban crisis, the Soviet leaders sought a period of great power stability in which to build up their nuclear arsenal so that they could bargain with the United States on a basis of equality. The growth of "polycentrism" throughout the world and the emergence of major rifts within the Soviet and American alliance systems provided added incentives to improving relations. The especially bitter conflict between the Soviet Union and Red China made it imperative for Moscow to ease tensions with Washington, as did the change in Soviet leadership from Nikita Khrushchev to Alexei Kosygin and then to Leonid Brezhnev. Increasingly bogged down in Vietnam, the United States could ill afford major conflict with the Soviet Union, and, indeed, some U.S. officials saw Moscow as a possible avenue for extricating the United States from the war.

In this context, the great powers moved cautiously toward a form of détente in the 1960s. In February 1964, the two nations renewed a cultural-exchange agreement. Four months later, they signed a consular agreement protecting tourists and other travelers in the United States and Soviet Union; this was the first bilateral treaty between the two nations. They also negotiated a civil-aviation agreement, and in July 1967 initiated direct flights between New York and Moscow. During the Arab- Israeli Six-Day War in 1967, the U.S.-Soviet hot line instituted in 1963 was used to good advantage. Moving hesitantly toward the control of nuclear weapons, the two nations followed up the 1963 nuclear test ban treaty by agreeing in 1964 to cut back on the production of fissionable materials. Toward the end of 1966, they reached agreement on the terms of a nuclear nonproliferation treaty.

While seeking improved relations with the Soviet Union, the Johnson administration also sought to build bridges with Eastern Europe. The illusion of a monolithic communism had long since been dispelled, and in addition to the economic advantages of expanded trade the administration saw political advantages in establishing ties with the Soviet satellites and reducing their dependence on Moscow. As a result, Johnson appointed a special committee on trade with Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. Acting on the recommendation of that committee, he proposed a bill to Congress that would have provided for a lowering of tariffs and expansion of credits to facilitate trade with the Eastern

European nations. In the meantime, he did everything possible within the limits of existing law to expand trade with these nations.

Despite the number and significance of the agreements negotiated between 1964 and 1969, détente made only limited progress during the Johnson years. The obstacles were numerous: Conservatives in Congress who found trade with any Communist nation intolerable blocked the administration's efforts to expand trade with Easte rn Eu rope. While the Vietnam War raged the Soviets could go only so far in negotiating with the United States for fear of losing credibility with their ally in Hanoi and giving China the upper hand in the Communist world. On the other side, American preoccupation with Vietnam and the domestic backlash from the war made it difficult if not impossible for Johnson to implement any other foreign policy initiatives. Each nation approached the vital issue of arms control with the greatest wariness. The Soviets, in particular, were reluctant to undertake substantive negotiations until they had gained nuclear parity with the United States.

The Johnson-Kosygin summit meeting at Glassboro, New Jersey, in the summer of 1967, the first such meeting since the disastrous Kennedy-Khrushchev meeting of April 1961, produced little of substance. Johnson found the Soviet leader "reserved but friendly," but every time he raised the crucial issue of arms control, Kosygin shifted the subject to the Middle East. Kosygin claimed the United States wanted to get rid of the Soviet Union's antiballistic-missile defense system while maintaining its sizable lead in offensive weapons. The only tangible result of the summit was to make final the terms of the nonproliferation treaty. Not until the following year did the two nations agree to initiate talks on strategic-arms limitation.

The crisis in Czechoslovakia, however, doomed these talks. While the Soviet regime was tightening its hold within Russia, even to the point of rehabilitating Stalinism, some of the Eastern European nations were experimenting with more liberal economic and political policies. During the unprece- dented ferment of the Prague Spring of 1968, the Czech government of Alexander Dubcek encouraged a loosening of economic and political controls and even talked of ending one-party domination of the political system. After a period of intense internal debate, the Soviet government put bloc stability over détente, sending troops into Czechoslovakia in August to put down the upheaval. Moscow followed by issuing the so-called "Brezhnev Doctrine," which justified such an intervention on the grounds that one Socialist nation had the right to save another from world imperialism and thereby preserve the Socialist system. Bogged down in Vietnam, discredited at home, and unable to prevent the Soviet action, Johnson demonstrated his displeasure by canceling his proposed visit to Moscow and delaying the opening of the strategic-arms talks. The administration subsequently agreed to begin the talks if the Soviets would withdraw troops from Czechoslovakia, and in the last weeks of his presidency Johnson plaintively pressed for a summit. By late 1968, however, the Soviets had lost interest, preferring to deal with the newly elected Nixon administration after it took office in January. The tangible results of the Johnson years were thus limited, and major progress in such areas as arms control and trade would have to await the Nixon summit of 1972.

The materials available from Johnson's National Security Files: "Country Files," for the U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe are quite sparse; they make up less than one full reel of microfilm. Contained on that reel are a number of cables and memoranda documenting the U.S. response to a iriendship" treaty between the Soviet Union and the German Democratic Republic in June and July of 1964. There are also memoranda of conversations that David Rockefeller, president of Chase Manhattan Bank, and syndicated columnist Drew Pearson had with Nikita Khrushchev in August of that year. The great bulk of the documents deals with the period between April and July 1967. This was a particularly interesting time in U.S.-Soviet relations: Johnson and Kosygin held their Glassboro summit meeting; the Arab-Israeli Six-Day Wartested the superpowers' abilities in crisis management as nothing had since the missile crisis; and U.S.-Soviet relations were further strained by expansion of the U.S. bombing of North Vietnam. The documents from this period include memoranda and cables on a variety of subjects: Soviet charges that U.S. bombs had hit a Soviet ship in the North Vietnamese port of Cam Pha; Alexei Kosygin's visit to Cuba; Soviet reaction to the meeting of the United States and various Latin American states in Punta del Este, Uruguay; ratification of the outer space treaty; and a near-collision between a Soviet destroyer and a U.S. ship in the Sea of Japan. The documents also include a variety of intelligence reports on such subjects as Soviet military policy in 1967 and possible

Soviet actions against the United States in Vietnam, and a full report on the Soviet Communist Party Central Committee meeting of 1967.

Although limited in volume and coverage, the documents contained in this collection give a good sense of the day-to-day management of U.S.-Soviet relations in this uncertain period and a particularly good indication of the ways in which the Vietnam War affected the relationship. They provide a useful introduction to the relatively unstudied subject of U.S.-Soviet relations in the mid- to late 1960s.

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The National Security Files (NSF) were the working files of Lyndon B. Johnson's special assistants

for national security affairs, McGeorge Bundy and Walt W. Rostow. Documents in these files originated in the offices of Bundy and Rostow and their staffs; in the various executive departments and agencies, especially those having to do with foreign affairs and national defense; and in diplomatic and military posts around the world.

The NSF "Country Files" are arranged by geographic area and thereunder alphabetically by country. Memos, cables, intelligence reports, correspondence, and special studies were originally bound into folders arranged in chronological order within each country. Each folder was assigned a volume number. Cables were usually arranged under agency tabs and embassy tabs. The State Department, Defense Department, FBI, CIA, and U.S. Information Agency were the agencies most frequently represented. Memos, memcons (memoranda of conversations), correspondence, and reports were filed with tabs highlighting selected documents, events, and correspondents. The files have been reorganized by the Lyndon B. Johnson Library, and in most cases each volume now consists of two folders, labeled "Cables" and "Memos," respectively; the original volume numbers have been retained. In most cases a "Country File" consists of one or more volumes, with separate folders for briefings on heads of state or government visiting the United States. For those countries in which a high level of diplomatic activity existed or a crisis occurred, documentation may be in separate folders.

The following geographic areas are included in University Publications of America's (UPA) Lyndon B. Johnson National Security Files series: Africa; Asia and the Pacific; Latin America; the Middle East; the U.S.S.R. and Eastern Europe; Vietnam; and Western Europe. The UN has been included as a separate NSF "Country File" by the Lyndon B. Johnson Library and is also a part of UPA's series. At the beginning of Reel 1 for each of these geographic areas and the UN, a finding aid compiled by the staff of the Lyndon B. Johnson Library has been included. These finding aids note all of the "open" material (material that has been processed and opened to researchers) and the "closed" material (material that has not been processed). UPA has microfilmed all of the "open" material. Also included at the beginning of Reel 1 for each area is a folder title list, which will assist the researcher in locating pertinent materials.

SOURCE NOTE The documents in this microfilm publication are from the Papers of Lyndon B. Johnson, National

Security Files: "Country Files." These documents represent a portion of the holdings of the Lyndon B. Johnson Library in Austin, Texas.

EDITORIAL NOTE University Publications of America (UPA) has microfilmed, in their entirety, all NSF "Country Files"

documents that were declassified, sanitized, or unclassified as of February 1987. In its microfilming, UPA has maintained the geographic breakdowns designated by the staff of the Lyndon B. Johnson Library. Many individual documents and entire folders of documents remain classified or unproc- essed; UPA has therefore included in its NSF microfilm publications the "Document Withdrawal Sheets" for each folder. These withdrawal sheets itemize documents that have been withdrawn from the folders, due to either national security or privacy restrictions, by the staff of the Lyndon B. Johnson Library. UPA intends to publish microfilm supplements containing documents from the NSF "Country Files" that become declassified or sanitized in the future.

Description of Reel Index The Reel Index for this single-reel publication details each microfilmed document in the collection;

document listings are arranged numerically by microfilm frame number. Included below is a sample entry from the Reel Index and a description of each of its elements:

0027 Incoming Telegram #0001. Fr: Llewellyn E. Thompson. To: Dean Rusk. July5,1967. 2pp. LBJ#3. C. 7/31/78. Soviet Premier Aleksei N. Kosygin's Visit to Cuba.

The first line of the entry contains (far left) the frame number at which the document begins and (right) a description of the document, plus its identification number (most telegrams and certain reports have identification numbers). The second and third lines contain the author/sender and receiver, respectively, of the document. Included on the fourth line are (1 ) the document's date, (2) its page count, and (3) the number assigned to it by the Lyndon B. Johnson Library (not all documents are assigned LBJ numbers). The fifth line contains the abbreviated security classification of the document and its declassif¡cation date (see p. 14 for an explanation of security classifications). The final lines of the entry give the title or subject of the document.

Note: The notation "NA" in a Reel Index entry indicates that a particular item of information is not available.

SECURITY CLASSIFICATIONS The following key identifies the abbreviated security classifications used in reel index entries for

previously classified documents contained in this microfilm publication:

ouo Official Use Only LOU Limited Official Use C Confidential S Secret TS Top Secret

The absence of an abbreviated security classification in a reel index entry indicates that the document either was not classified or was labeled "unclassified.''

Also included in the reel index are the dates on which documents with the abbreviated security classifications "C," "S," and "TS" were declassified. For documents in which certain information is still being withheld, the notation "IP" (meaning " declassified in part") appears following the declassification date. Documents with the abbreviated security declassifications "OUO" and "LOU" have no declassification dates.
