Although the main emphasis of the Easter March was on Vietnam, the confusion which exists in the movement was reflected by the wide range of slogans carried on this subject. Ve sought to inject into the March a political platform which could at the same time take the Government at its word and yet be a rallying point for co-ordinated action against the war.
In our leaflets and speeches we argued that an end to the war was possible only if all foreign troops were withdrawn; if e11 countries recognised the only popular force in the South: the NLF; and the North and South are unified. This being the case, our Government should press for all American troops to be withdrawn; and immediate end to all attacks on the North, immediate negotiations with the so-called Vietcong; and the unity of the country.
