DEPARTMENT OF STATE INR BRIEFING NOTE GIST: COMMUNIST CHINA-NEPAL (p.2) The Director, INR DATE: June 12, 1968 Reg. Morning TIME: COMMENTS CONTAINED IN INR BRIEFING NOTES ARE INITIAL AND TENTATIVE. Chen's statement that Chinese ambassadors would be returning "soon" in the first use of that word by Peking we have seen in connection with the return of its chiefs of mission to their posts. All other evidence, including Peking's recent note to the U.S. in Warsaw, indicates that China does not intend to send back its ambassadors until at least October or November of this year. If Peking does send Yang-Kung-su back to Nepal, this would not placate the Nepalese, since Nepal has been reported desirous of getting a new Chinese Ambassador without Yang's history of heavy-handedness.
