He went on to say the transaction would benefit the balance of payments and the American taxpayers, as well as improve relations with other countries. Following this statement the President answered questions on a variety of topics including the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in Vietnam, the upcoming meeting with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, military coups in Latin America, and space exploration.
