Full title: "Confidential Memorandum on Overall Strategy for the Attention of President Kenyatta".
BR comments that "the inherent instability of a puppet régime in the Congo will oblige the U.S. to increase the violence, the weapons, the mercenaries, the number of U.S. and Belgian troops and the subversive campaign against neighbouring states." BR suggests Kenya "break relations with Tshombe".
Moise Kapenda Tshombe is the political leader in the Congo.
