Cable from the Foreign Ministry to the Chinese Embassy in North Korea, 'Notify Korea on the Border Crossing Issue of Supplies for Aiding Vietnam'
Notify Korea on the Border Crossing Issue of Supplies for Aiding Vietnam
To the [Chinese] Embassy in [North] Korea:
The cable dated 2 November [1965] was received. The [North] Korean said has already, or will soon, ship 28 train cars of material aid for Vietnam. The transportation procedures have been handled by the railway transport system (trans. note--xitong). We do not have to ask them to go through diplomatic channels to work out the procedures with us again.
The contents of this cable can be reported to the [North] Korean side. It is a notification. There is no need to reply. If the [North] Korean side asks, you can report that intermodal transportation will be used for these materials. The exact procedures can be handled by the railway authorities of the two countries.
