...inexorable quality to Teng's way of operating," says one Hong Kong Sinologist. "He patiently isolates and weakens his enemies and then, when the moment is right, he gets rid of them altogether." Analysts believe that the Vice Premier's power grab worries Chairman Hua, who has been attempting to keep the purges from splitting the party leadership into pro-and anti-Teng factions. The fact that Wu lingers on in the Politburo suggests that Hua has somehow worked out a face-saving compromise - allowing Teng his vengeance while preventing bloodshed from weakening party unity...

In the past month he has sent emissaries to China with pleas for supplementary military aid. Though he has received gratifying messages from Chairman Hua Kuo-feng ("We support your struggle"), no substantial increase in aid has been forthcoming. Diplomatic observers in Southeast Asia believe that if the Pol Pot regime should be toppled by Viet Nam or by a coup d'etat, Peking would withdraw from Cambodia, cutting its losses while attributing the defeat...
