Memorandum From the President's Assistant for National Security Affairs (Kissinger) to President Nixon, Washington, March 14, 1970

US Government State Department

Abstract


Washington, March 14, 1970

Kissinger forwarded Under Secretary of State Elliot Richardson's latest progress report on Nigerian relief and expressed his concern over the poor distribution and low tonnage of relief supplies. While the Nigerian effort had made tangible progress since the first chaotic days in January, the tonnage still fell far short of estimated needs.
