SECRET—EXTREMELY URGENT

SSE/600.(24h)

Question of Cuba.

 

46 – WEDNESDAY – 17hs00 – Response to your telegram no 128. I approve the suggestion of Your Excellency to the secretary general agreeing also in that the scheme will gain visibility if it is presented to the directly interested parties by U Thant. Your Excellency, however, should coordinate your action with that of the secretary general, insisting together to the Cuban representatives about the advantages that a solution of this nature would have for the Government of Havana. As for the intercession of the president of the republic, that would depend on the progress made in these first contacts.
