Korea and the Far East Situation

1 Jan 1952

SECRET ANNEX KOREAN AND FAR EASTERN SITUATION Detailed Comments on report by Air Vice Marshal Bouchier. Para 7. 1. We do not hold the opinion that the U.N. build-up is increasing at a greater rate than that of the enemy, nor that a "stalemate" would exhaust the Chinese. Para 9. 2. We consider that the Central Peoples Government is firmly in power and think it unlikely that events in Korea would lead to rebellion in China. Paras 12 and 13. 3. These paras give the impression that all concessions have been made by the Communists.
