NOTES
3.5(c)
14 June 1978
World Cup Soccer Games Proceed Without Serious Incident
Despite widespread rumors concerning terrorist operations
planned to disrupt the World Cup soccer games, no significant
terrorist incidents have occurred as of the midway point.
Elaborate Argentine security arrangements, including a
special 5000-man security force, and the terrorists' fear of
creating a negative popular reaction to their cause, have
apparently prevented terrorist actions in Argentina. One
World Cup-related bombing occurred in Portugal, where a bomb
exploded at the Argentine embassy to protest the repressive
measures of the Argentine government. The World Cup matches
will conclude on 25 June.
