Khrushchev has also written to Nehru urging him to attend. These overtures probably reflect Khrushchev's desire to use his UN appearance to underscore his commit- ment to a policy of coexistence and high-level talks with free- world leaders, particularly on disarmament.

Although tribal rivalry and the republic's attainment last June of independence within the French Community should benefit the moderate parties, the AKFM ap- pears to have attracted wide support since its strong showing in municipal elections last fall. The AKFM is well organized and reportedly has been receiving substantial financial support from the French Community Communist party and the Sino-Soviet bloc. 3 Sept 60 DAILY BRIEF 111 '76P�SECREZ.

After Peru had initiated the meeting, Porras failed to take the lead in promoting the resolution against extracon- tinental intervention in the hemisphere, defied his government's instructions, and finally refused to sign. President Prado, un- der pressure from the Peruvian military, has agreed to this move when the time is propitious, and particularly if other Latin American countries take similar action. Guatemala and Nicaragua broke relations with Cuba earlier this year. Colombia, which is incensed by a recent outburst by the Cuban ambassador in Bogota, will at least declare him persona non grata. Venezue- lan President Betancourt, who has become increasingly hostile toward Castro and concerned by the threat of pro-Castro vio- lence to his regime, also seems to be approaching a break. Prado is reluctant to force the resignation of Porras, a friend of the leftist but non-Communist APRA party, for fear of alienating the APRA% general backing of his administration. The cabinet unanimously censured his actions at San Jose, and the military representatives are insisting on his ouster. APRA, a bitter enemy of the Peruvian military and conserva- tive elements, has tended to sympathize with the objectives of the Cuban revolution; a dissident and militant wing of the party is strongly pro-Castro. However, Ramiro Priale, APRA% top lead- er in Peru, who advised Prado that the party would accede to a break of relations with Cuba, has informed the US Embassy in Lima that it will not withdraw its support of Prado in the event Porras resigns�presumably voluntarily. Porras' position at San Jose w s similar to that of Venezue- lan Foreign Minister Arcaya, a stanch supporter of Castro, who refused to sign the final resolution of the meeting which was ap- proved by his government. This development has caused consider- able tension in Venezuela, where pro-Castro groups are strong, and could threaten President Betancourt's three-party coalition. 3 Sept 60 CENTp�p.rOveCi for Release: -016/07/05 C.03160562 Page 5 Approved for Release: 2016/07/05 C03160562 THE PRESIDENT The Vice President Executive Offices of the White House Special Assistant for National Security Affairs Scientific Adviser to the President Director of the Budget Director, Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization Director, National Aeronautics and Space Administration Special Assistant for Security Operations Coordination Chairman, Board of Consultants on Foreign Intelligence Activities Special Assistant for Foreign Economic Policy Executive Secretary, National Security Council The Treasury Department The Secretary of the Treasury The Department of State The Secretary of State The Under Secretary of State The Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs The Deputy Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs The Deputy Under Secretary of State for Administration The Counselor Director, International Cooperation Administration The Director of Intelligence and Research The Department of Defense The Secretary of Defense The Deputy Secretary of Defense Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs The Secretary of the Army The Secretary of the Navy The Secretary of the Air Force The Chairman, The Joint Chiefs of Staff The Director, The Joint Staff Chief of Staff, United States Army Chief of Naval Operations, United States Navy Chief of Staff, United States Air Force Commandant, United States Marine Corps Assistant to Secretary of Defense for Special Operations Director for Intelligence, The Joint Staff Assistant Chief of Staff for Intelligence, Department of Army Director of Naval Intelligence, Department of Navy Assistant Chief of Staff, Intelligence, Department of the Air Force Supreme Allied Commander, Europe Commander in Chief, Pacific The Department of Commerce The Secretary of Commerce Federal Bureau of Investigation The Director Atomic Energy Commission The Chairman National Security Agency The Director National Indications Center The Director CO AL Approved for Release: 2016/07/05 C03160562 ///77./ "Mpicicy
