- Description:
- A newspaper article discussing: Senator Frank Church expressed concerns that the SALT II Treaty had only a 50-50 chance of passing due to issues like Soviet combat troops in Cuba and their potential to encourage revolutions. Some senators linked their support for the treaty to increases in defense spending, while others required assurances regarding Soviet military presence in Cuba. Church emphasized that addressing these concerns would be critical to securing enough votes for ratification.
