CUBA-ARGENTINA: Two Cubans Missing
3.5(c)
//The recent disappearance of two Cuban em-
bassy staff members in Buenos Aires is seriously straining re-
lations between Argentina and Cuba. If it is established that
the two were killed by Argentine security officials, Havana
could break relations.//
3.5(c)
the two Cubans were killed because an in-
vestigation into their activities had revealed that they were
providing direct assistance to an Argentine guerrilla organiza-
tion, the men were agents of the
Cuban intelligence organization.// 3.3(b)(1)

3.5(c) //Some Cuban officials in Buenos Aires are
reportedly convinced of the Argentine government's involvement,
although others suspect that the disappearance was a Cuban ex-
ile operation.//
3.5(c) //To underscore Cuba's concern, which has al-
ready been expressed to Argentine officials in both Havana and
Buenos Aires, Havana last week recalled three merchant ships
chartered by Cuba and already en route to Buenos Aires to pick
up 1,800 Argentine-manufactured cars and trucks.//
3.5(c)
//Prime Minister Fidel Castro is known to
be personally concerned about the continuing terrorist incidents
involving Cuban fishermen at sea and diplomatic and commercial
3.3(b)(1) representatives abroad.
In an ag-
gressive speech on June 6, Castro warned that Cuba may respond
in kind to future acts of terrorism.//
3.5(c)
//If there is good evidence of the Argentine
government's role in the Buenos Aires killings, Castro may
choose to break relations despite the effect this would have on
trade between the two countries. In 1975, Cuba imported some
$160-million worth of Argentine goods--about 4 percent of Cuba's
overall imports.//
3.5(c)
//He may believe, in any case, that maintain-
ing relations with Argentina's military government has become
untenable in light of his own criticism of countries that main-
tain ties with the "fascist" government in Chile.
