Foreign observers, however, doubt that the low-level talks will do much to resolve what appear to be the real reasons for the neighborly conflict: Hanoi's anger at Chinese support for Viet Nam's hostile neighbor, Cambodia, and Peking's fear of expanding Soviet influence in Viet...

Disagreeing, a federal prosecutor accuses Olin of conspiring to "subvert the foreign policy of the U.S." If found guilty.
