Description
Description
Madame Ngo Dinh Nhu tells a press conference that Americans are responsible for the Vietnamese army coup, denies that her husband and her brother-in-law, President Ngo Dinh Diem, committed suicide. "The supposed leader of the coup, General Duong Van Minh- is he supposed to rule the Americans or the Vietnamese? For how long will they hold power if they ever hold power? I cannot understand why President Diem's Roman Catholicism is constantly mentioned while that of certain other chiefs of state is not...Any crime committed against the Ngo family cannot be hidden under the label of suicide because suicide is incompatible with our religion. The Ngo family only wanted to give Vietnam its own identity which cannot be the same as the one wanted by a few short-sighted arrogant Americans."
