Memorandum From Roger Morris of the National Security Council Staff to the President's Assistant for National Security Affairs (Kissinger), Washington, February 6, 1969
Abstract
Washington, February 6, 1969
Morris indicated that the NSC papers on Biafran relief basically told the President that the United States could not expect to expand relief under the present low-involvement policy, and if relief were expanded it would mean becoming more involved in supporting Federal Nigeria. Attached at Tab A are Talking Points attached by Morris in anticipation of an NSC Review Group discussion of Nigeria that afternoon.
